SCOTT v. STATE (2019)

Supreme Court of Nevada.

Steven Larue SCOTT, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.

No. 79089

Decided: July 29, 2019

Steven Larue Scott Attorney General/Carson City Clark County District Attorney

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from an amended judgment of conviction. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Joseph Hardy, Jr., Judge.

This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it appears that appellant was not aggrieved by the amended judgment of conviction. See NRS 177.015 (only an aggrieved party may appeal). The district court entered an amended judgment to indicate that appellant was sentenced under NRS 207.010(l)(b)(2).¹ Accordingly, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.²

FOOTNOTES

1. The Court of Appeals affirmed and remanded for entry of a corrected judgment of conviction stating that appellant was sentenced pursuant to NRS 207.010(1)(b)(2). See Scott v. State, Docket No. 77422-COA (Order of Affirmance, May 17, 2019).

2. Given this order, no action will be taken on the pro se motion filed on July 16, 2019.
