IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

ENOMA UYG IGBINOVIA, No. 81246 Appellant, vs. JERRY HOWELL, WARDEN; AND THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondents.

FILED JUN 1 0 2020 EL1ZAB4111 A. BROWN CLM .FV BY c PUIY7111.610 ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from a purported district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jerry A. Wiese, Judge.

This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.

Specifically, no decision had been made on the petition when appellant filed the notice of appeal on May 18, 2020. Thus, the notice of appeal is premature. See NRS 177.01.5(3) (stating that a defendant only may appeal from a final judgment or verdict). Accordingly, this court ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
