Shane Donovan BROOKS, Appellant, v. NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS; “NDOC”; William A. Gittere, Warden; James Dzurenda, Director; and NDOC Employees, Respondents.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This appeal was initiated by the filing of a pro se notice of appeal. Seventh Judicial District Court, White Pine County; Steve L, Dobrescu, Judge.
Appellant filed a notice of appeal on May 20, 2019. The notice of appeal does not designate an appealable order. See NRAP 3(a). To the extent that appellant appeals from a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus, no decision had been made on the petition. Rather, the district court entered an order granting appellant's motion to voluntarily dismiss his petition on April 18, 2019.1 Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
FOOTNOTES
1. Appellant filed a “motion to voluntarily dismiss action with prejudice” in district court on March 6, 2019.
