TRELLIS ANDRE QUINN, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal from a district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Joseph Hardy, Jr., Judge.
Appellant's counsel has filed a motion to remand this matter to the district court. In particular, counsel asserts that the district court's order does not address the claims raised by appellant in his pro se petition and supplemental memoranda. Counsel acknowledges that the district court order is not final but states he is not seeking to dismiss this appeal. Instead, counsel requests that this matter be remanded to the district court to issue a final ruling on the unaddressed claims. The motion is unopposed.
The challenged district court order is not a final order because it does not resolve all claims raised by appellant in his pro se postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus and supplemental memoranda. See Sandstrom v. Second Judicial Dist. Court, 121 Nev. 657, 659, 119 P.3d 1250, 1252 (2005) (“[A] final order [is] one that disposes of all issues and leaves nothing for future consideration.”). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal and dismisses this appeal. See NRS 177.015(3); NRS 34.575(1). Appellant's request to remand this matter to the district court is denied. However, appellant may file a new notice of appeal, if aggrieved, once the district court enters an order finally resolving all claims raised below.
It is so ORDERED.
