City of Las Vegas v. Carver

Opinion

OPINION

Per Curiam: ■

Aden I. Carver was convicted of a misdemeanor in a Las Vegas Municipal Court. A timely appeal to a District Court resulted in the conviction being reversed and the misdemeanor complaint being dismissed. The City of Las Vegas then caused this appeal to be lodged.

We do not reach the merit, if any, of the appeal. We have no jurisdiction for appellate review of a.district court judgment, which has been entered on an appeal from a municipal court. Nev. Const, art. VI, § 6. See The City of Reno v. Dixon, 42 Nev. 67, 172 P. 367 (1918), and cases cited therein. Appellant’s remedy, if any, would have been to timely petition for *199 certiorari, under NRS 34.020(3). City of Reno v. District Court, 83 Nev. 201, 427 P.2d 4 (1967). Accordingly, we ORDER this appeal dismissed.
