Alcivar (Amable) v. State

Opinion

claim based on the equitable doctrine of laches, the district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Alcivar's motion because the motion relies on the retroactive application of Padilla to his 1999 guilty plea. See Wilson v. State, 99 Nev. 362, 373, 664 P.2d 328, 334 (1983) (reviewing denial of motion to set aside a guilty plea for an abuse of discretion); 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). Accordingly, we ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
