STEVEN S. PRADD, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a proper person appeal from an order of the district court denying a post-conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Elizabeth Goff Gonzalez, Judge.

This appeal has been submitted for decision without oral argument, NRAP 34(f)(3), and we conclude that the record is sufficient for our review and briefing is unwarranted. See Luckett v. Warden, 91 Nev. 681, 682, 541 P.2d 910, 911 (1975).

In his petition, filed on April 8, 2013, appellant claimed that he was being denied the opportunity to earn work credits in violation of the Equal Protection Clause. In response to an order of this court, the attorney general advised that appellant discharged his sentence on September 26, 2013, while his appeal was pending in this court. Accordingly, appellant's claims regarding the computation of his sentence are now moot. Johnson v. Dir., Nev. Dep't of Prisons, 105 Nev. 314, 316, 774 P.2d 1047, 1049 (1989); see also Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 8, 14 (1998) (requiring proof of continuing collateral consequences). Accordingly, we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
