district court of jurisdiction to consider the collateral petition. NRS
                 34.724(2)(a) (providing that a habeas corpus petition is not a substitute for
                 and does not affect the remedy of direct review); NRS 34.730(3) (providing
                 that the clerk of the district court shall file a habeas corpus petition as a
                 new action separate and distinct from any original proceeding in which a
                 conviction has been had); Daniels v. State, 100 Nev. 579, 580, 688 P.2d
                 315, 316 (1984) (recognizing that a post-conviction proceeding is separate
                 from the direct appeal), overruled on other grounds by Varwig v. State, 104
                 Nev. 40, 752 P.2d 760 (1988); Groesbeck v. Warden, 100 Nev. 259, 260, 679
                 P.2d 1268, 1268-69 (1984) (recognizing that a post-conviction habeas
                 corpus petition is a petition seeking collateral review). 2 Accordingly, we
                               ORDER the judgment of the district court REVERSED AND
                 REMAND this matter to the district court for proceedings consistent with
                 this order.
