Samuel GOMEZ, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from an amended judgment of conviction. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Mary Kay Holthus, Judge.
This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the amended judgment of conviction resulted in a reduction of the sentence in count 3.1 Thus, it appears that appellant is not aggrieved by the order. See NRS 177.015 (only an aggrieved party may appeal). Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
