JARED EDWARD BEEBE, Appellant, v. TIM GARRETT, WARDEN; AND THE STATE OF NEVADA,
ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
Jared Edward Beebe appeals from a district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus challenging the computation of time served filed on December 12, 2023. First Judicial District Court, Carson City; Kristin Luis, Judge.
In his petition, Beebe sought the application of statutory credits to his sentence. Beebe failed to demonstrate that he had exhausted his administrative remedies prior to filing the petition. Therefore, we conclude the district court did not err by denying Beebe's petition.1 See NRS 34.724(1), (2)(c). Accordingly, we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
Gibbons, C.J.
Bulla, J.
Westbrook, J.
FOOTNOTES
1. The district court addressed the merits of Beebe's petition and did not dismiss the petition without prejudice based on Beebe's failure to demonstrate that he had first exhausted his administrative remedies. See NRS 34.810(2). We nevertheless affirm the district court's order because it reached the correct result. See Wyatt v. State, 86 Nev. 294, 298, 468 P.2d 338, 341 (1970) (holding a correct result will not be reversed simply because it is based on the wrong reason).
