Darion MUHAMMAD-COLEMAN, a/k/a Darion Muhammadcoleman, Appellant, v. Renee BAKER, Warden, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
On October 13, 2020, the district court denied in part appellant's postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus and set an evidentiary hearing regarding the PTSD self-defense theory. Thus, appellant's notice of appeal is premature because a final order resolving all claims has not been entered by the district court. See NRS 177.015(3) (stating that appellant may appeal from a final judgment or verdict); Sandstrom v. Second Judicial Dist. Court, 121 Nev. 657, 659, 119 P.3d 1250, 1252 (2005) (explaining that a final order disposes of all issues and leaves nothing for future consideration). Appellant may file an appeal when the district court has entered an order disposing of the remaining claims.
Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
