Romero (Eddgar) v. State ( 2014 )


Menu:
  •                  not under a sentence of death or imprisonment as required by NRS 34.724.
    See Coleman v. State, 130 Nev. „ 
    321 P.3d 863
    , 867 (2014).
    Therefore, because Romero did not meet the imprisonment requirement of
    NRS 34.724, he was not eligible for post-conviction habeas relief. See 
    id.
    For this reason, we affirm the decision of the district court to deny the
    petition. 2 Accordingly, we
    ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.

    2 Although   the district court incorrectly addressed the procedural
    bars and merits of the claims, we nevertheless affirm because the district
    court reached the correct result in denying the petition. See Wyatt v.
    State, 
    86 Nev. 294
    , 298, 
    468 P.2d 338
    , 341 (1970) (holding that a correct
    result will not be reversed simply because it is based on the wrong reason).
