ANTHONY POSEY v. THE STATE OF NEVADA (2025)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a purported denial of a post-conviction petition for writ of mandamus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Joseph Hardy, Jr., Judge.

This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it does not appear that any decision had been made on the petition at the time appellant filed the notice of appeal, and that the petition remains pending below. Thus, the notice of appeal is premature. See NRS 177.015(3) (stating that a defendant may appeal only from a final judgment or verdict). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction, and this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.¹
