DAHIR v. STATE (2020)

Supreme Court of Nevada.

Shane Michael DAHIR, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.

No. 81089

Decided: May 15, 2020

Shane Michael Dahir Attorney General/Carson City Clark County District Attorney

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a purported district court order denying a postconviction motion to withdraw a guilty plea. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Cristina D. Silva, Judge.

This court’s review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, no decision had been made on the motion when appellant filed his appeal on April 23, 2020.¹ Thus, this appeal is premature. See NRS 177.015(3) (stating that a defendant only may appeal from a final judgment or verdict). Accordingly, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
