AARON LAMONT HENDRIX, Appellant, v. BRIAN WILLIAMS, WARDEN, Respondent.


ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE

Aaron Lamont Hendrix appeals from an order of the district court denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed on November 21, 2017. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Linda Marie Bell, Chief Judge.

This appeal has been submitted for decision without oral argument. NRAP 34(f)(3). --------

Hendrix argues the district court erred by denying his claim the Nevada Department of Corrections (NDOC) improperly declined to apply his statutory credits to the minimum term of his sentence. The district court concluded Hendrix was not entitled to relief because he was convicted of conspiracy to commit robbery, robbery with the use of a deadly weapon, and burglary, all category B felonies, see NRS 193.165(2); NRS 199.480(1); NRS 200.380(2); NRS 205.060(2), committed the offenses in 2009, and for those reasons, NDOC may only apply Hendrix' credits toward his maximum term pursuant to NRS 209.4465(8). Given these circumstances, we conclude the district court did not err by denying the petition. Accordingly, we

ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
