NUNN v. The State of Nevada, Real Party in Interest. (2019)

Supreme Court of Nevada.

Sammie NUNN, Petitioner, v. The EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT of the State of Nevada, IN AND FOR the COUNTY OF CLARK, Respondent, The State of Nevada, Real Party in Interest.

No. 80061

Decided: December 13, 2019

Sammie Nunn Attorney General/Carson City Clark County District Attorney

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

In this original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus, petitioner seeks a stay of proceedings in the district court and a writ directing the district court to permit him to withdraw his guilty plea.

Problematically, petitioner has not provided this court with exhibits or other documentation that would support his claims for relief. See NRAP 21(a)(4) (providing the petitioner shall submit an appendix containing all documents “essential to understand the matters set forth in the petition”). Therefore, without deciding the merits of the claims raised, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this matter, see NRAP 21(b); Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (“Petitioner[ ] carr[ies] the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted”). Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
