Philson (Roy) v. Warden

Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

ROY H. PHILSON, No. 73790 Appellant, vs. JO GENTRY, WARDEN; NDOC/OMD; FILED AND THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondents.

OCT 30 2017 ELIZABETH A BROWN F SUPREME COURT CLER3,CLI _ DEPUTY CLERK ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from a decision resolving a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Linda Marie Bell, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.

Specifically, the district court granted appellant the relief he requested in his petition. Thus, appellant is not aggrieved by the order. See NRS 177.015 (only an aggrieved party may appeal). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
