JONATHAN TAYLOR, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS AND/OR PROHIBITION
This is an original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus and/or prohibition challenging the district court's denial of a motion for sentence modification.
Petitioner has not provided this court with any exhibits or documents in support of his petition and necessary for this court's consideration of the petition. See NRAP 21(a)(4) (providing that petitioner shall submit an appendix containing all documents “essential to understanding] the matters set forth in the petition”). Petitioner bears the burden of showing that extraordinary relief is warranted. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004). We conclude that petitioner has failed to demonstrate our intervention by extraordinary writ is warranted.
Therefore, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this matter. See NRAP 21(b). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
