'The district court denied the petition on the merits, but as discussed previously, should have denied the petition as procedurally barred. However, we affirm because the district court reached the right result in denying the petition. See Wyatt v. State, 86 Nev. 294, 298, 468 P.2d 338, 341 (1970).
