ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL CLERK

This is a pro se appeal from a purported decision denying a postconviction.petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Kathleen E. Delaney, Judge. Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no decision had been made on the petition when appellant filed his appeal on November 16, 2017. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
