HICKMAN v. STATE (2020)

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is an appeal from a district court order denying a petition and supplemental petition for postconviction relief. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Carolyn Ellsworth, Judge.

Appellant’s counsel has filed a motion for voluntary dismissal of this appeal. Attached to the motion is a statement from appellant representing that appellant has received a full explanation from his counsel of the legal consequences of a dismissal. Appellant states he understands he is waiving the right to appeal the denial of his post conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus and that by doing so, his judgment of conviction will stand. Appellant also states he understands that he is waiving the right to pursue claims in subsequent state or federal proceedings. After consideration of his situation and the communications with appellate counsel, appellant has decided not to pursue this appeal. Under these circumstances, the motion is granted and this appeal is dismissed.

It is so ORDERED.
