ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying appellant Francisco Contreras-Dejesus's May 4, 2016, postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Linda Marie Bell, Judge. Contreras-Dejesus challenged the computation of time he has served. We affirm " Contreras-Dejesus claimed that the Nevada Department of Corrections is not deducting statutory credits from his minimum sentences pursuant to NRS 209.4465(7)(b). Contreras-Dejesus's claim lacks merit. NRS 209.4465(7) begins, "Except as otherwise provided in subsection[ ] 8," and NRS 209.4465(8) specifically excludes offenders convicted and/or sentenced pursuant to NRS 484C.110 or 484C.430 or of category B felonies from deducting statutory credits from their minimum sentences. Contreras-Dejesus was convicted and sentenced pursuant to NRS 484C.110 and NRS 484C.430 for a category B felony for crimes committed after the effective date of NRS 209.4465(8). Accordingly, 'This appeal has been submitted for decision on the record without briefing or oral argument. NRAP 34(0(3), (g); see also NRAP 31(d)(1); Luckett v.
