DAMON SAMERI CHANEY, A/K/A DAMON SAMARI CHANEY, Appellant, v. WILLIAM REUBART, WARDEN, Respondent.
UNPUBLISHED OPINION
ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
Damon Sameri Chaney appeals from an order of the district court dismissing without prejudice a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus challenging the computation of time served. Seventh Judicial District Court, Lincoln County; Gary Fairman, Judge.
In his petition, filed on October 5, 2022, Chaney sought the application of statutory credits to his minimum sentence. The State moved to dismiss the petition because Chaney failed to first exhaust his administrative remedies as required by NRS 34.724(1), (2)(c). In his response to the State's motion to dismiss, Chaney suggested that he had attempted to exhaust his administrative remedies, but the documentation he provided demonstrated only that he had asked questions regarding other issues and not the application of statutory credits to his minimum sentence. Accordingly, we conclude the district court did not err by dismissing without prejudice Chaney's petition, see NRS 34.810(2), and we
The subsections within NRS 34.810 were recently renumbered. We note the substance of the subsection cited herein was not altered. See A.B. 49, 82d Leg. (Nev. 2023).
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
