BLOCKSON v. HUTCHINGS (2021)

ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE

Blockson claimed he is entitled to the application of statutory credits to his minimum and maximum sentence pursuant to NRS 209.4465(7)(b) for his conviction for cruelty to animals. The district court found that Blockson was entitled to credits toward this sentence but, subsequent to the filing of his petition, the State corrected his credit history report to include the appropriate credits. Therefore, the district court denied the petition as moot. These findings are supported by the record. Blockson's credit history report shows he is receiving the appropriate credits. Further, Blockson admitted in his answer to the State's response that he is now receiving the appropriate credits. Therefore, we conclude the district court did not err by denying this claim as moot.

Blockson also claimed he was actually convicted of misdemeanor cruelty to animals and not a felony. This is a challenge to the judgment of conviction and is outside the scope of a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus challenging the computation of time served. See NRS 34.738(3). Therefore, we conclude the district court did not err by denying the petition, and we

ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
