IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA JAMES EUGENE HERMANSON, No. 81326 Appellant, vs. FILED THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent. OCT 1 8 2021 ELIZABE 4 A. EF'.OWN CLE PREME C.OLIFIT BY DEP L; CLERK ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE This is an appeal from a district court order denying a motion to correct an illegal sentence. Third Judicial District Court, Lyon County; Leon Aberasturi, Judge.1 Appellant argues that his sentence is illegal because the district court did not have jurisdiction to impose a sentence for a sexual offense without a presentence investigation report. And because the district court did not have jurisdiction to impose the sentence, appellant argues that his due process rights were violated. A motion to correct an illegal sentence may only challenge the facial legality of the sentence: either the district court was without jurisdiction to impose a sentence or the sentence was imposed in excess of the statutory maximum. Edwards v. State, 112 Nev. 704, 708, 918 P.2d 321, 324 (1996). "A motion to correct an illegal sentence 'presupposes a valid conviction and may not, therefore, be used to challenge alleged errors in proceedings that occur prior to the imposition of sentence.'" Id. (quoting Allen v. United States, 495 A.2d 1145, 1149 (D.C. 1985)). We conclude that the district court did not err in denying the motion because appellant failed 1Pursuant to NRAP 34(f)(1), we have determined that oral argument that oral argument is not warranted. Z. t -117 b g - to demonstrate that his sentence was facially illegal or that the district court lacked jurisdiction to impose a sentence. While NRS 176.135(2) provides that a presentence investigation report "fmlust be made before the imposition of sentence" for a defendant convicted of a sexual offense, nothing in this statute precludes the defendant from waiving the preparation of a presentence investigation report. See Krauss v. State, 116 Nev. 307, 310, 998 P.2d 163, 165 (2000) (Generally, a defendant is entitled to enter into agreements that waive or otherwise affect his or her fundamental rights."); State v. Lewis, 59 Nev. 262, 277, 91 P.2d 820, 825-26 (1939) (This court has often held that one charged with crime may waive a statutory requirement."). Here, appellant requested to waive the presentence investigation report, and the district court personally canvassed appellant to ascertain that he entered the waiver knowingly and voluntarily. The district court accepted the waiver and sentenced appellant to life with parole eligibility after 25 years, the only sentence available for the crime in this case. See NRS 200.366(3)(b) (providing for a sentence of life with the possibility of parole after 25 years for the crime of sexual assault on a child under the age of 16 years). At the most, imposition of a sentence without preparation of a presentence investigation report amounts to an error at sentencing, an error that does not implicate the district court's jurisdiction. See Nev. Const. art. 6, § 6(1); NRS 171.010; Thomas v. State, 88 Nev. 382, 384, 498 P.2d 1314, 1315-16 (1972) (recognizing the mandatory language in preparing a presentence investigation report, but holding that preparation of the report pursuant to NRS 176.145 was not jurisdictional); see also United States v. Cotton, 535 U.S. 625, 630 (2002) CMhe term jurisdiction means . . . the courts' statutory or constitutional power to adjudicate the case." (emphasis in original) (internal quotations marks omitted)). We further conclude that SUPFIEME COURT OF NEVADA 2 WI 1947A 4r4Y)C, -fr the district court did not err in concluding that appellant invited the error, and he cannot now complain. See Rhyne v. State, 118 Nev. 1, 9, 38 P.3d 163, 168 (2002). And to the extent the presentence investigation report aids in parole consideration, classification, or other prison matters, the Division of Parole and Probation represented in earlier proceedings below that a postconviction report could be prepared as a substitute for a presentence investigation report. See Parole and Probation Division Directive Manual 6.3.124A r[U]pon request of the Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners, the Division will conduct an investigation to provide the Parole Board with timely, relevant and accurate information concerning those felony-level case(s) where a Presentence Investigation Report was waived at the time of an offender/inmate sentencing."). Appellant's claim that his procedural due process rights were violated is without merit for the reasons discussed above. Therefore, we conclude that the district court did not err in denying appellant's motion and we ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.2 , C.J. Hardesty J. Stiglich cc: Hon.
