Supreme Court of Nevada.

TRAVIS WILFORD BOWLES, Petitioner, v. THE SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF WASHOE, Respondent.

No. 86488

Decided: May 23, 2023

ORDER DENYING PETITION

This is a pro se original petition to establish factual innocence. NRS 34.960 governs the procedure for a petition to establish factual innocence and provides that “a person who has been convicted of a felony may petition the district court in the county in which the person was convicted, for a hearing to establish the factual innocence of the person based on newly discovered evidence.” NRS 34.960(1) (emphasis added). Because petitioner did not file this action in the district court in the county in which he was convicted, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
