ORDER ADMINISTRATIVELY CLOSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from an order of the district court dismissing a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus.

Appellant's appeal from the district court's order was previously docketed in this court in Docket No. 71181. The clerk of this court inadvertently docketed this appeal as a separate matter when appellant filed a second, duplicative notice of appeal. Accordingly, we direct the clerk of this court to administratively close the instant appeal and transfer to Docket No. 71181 all documents filed or received in this matter.

It is so ORDERED.
