Opinion

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This appeal was initiated by the filing of a pro se appeal challenging the purported denial of appellants postconviction habeas petition. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Erika D. Ballou, Judge.

This courts review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no decision had been made on the petition for writ of habeas corpus when appellant filed the notice of appeal on January 23, 2024. Thus, the notice of appeal is premature. See NRS 177.015(3) (stating that a defendant only may appeal from a final judgment or verdict). Accordingly, this court ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
