ORDER DENYING PETITION
This is an original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus
seeking to direct the district court to compel petitioner's former counsel and
the district attorney's office to produce and transmit his entire case file.
This court has original jurisdiction to issue writs of mandamus,
and the issuance of such extraordinary relief is within this court's sole
discretion. See Nev. Const. art. 6, § 4; D.R. Horton, Inc. v. Eighth Judicial
Dist. Court, 123 Nev. 468, 474-75, 168 P.3d 731, 736-37 (2007). Petitioner
bears the burden to show that extraordinary relief is warranted, and such
relief is proper only when there is no plain, speedy, and adequate remedy
at law. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 224, 228, 88
P.3d 840, 841, 844 (2004).
Although petitioner references rulings by the district court, he
has not provided this court with either copies of his motions filed below,
district court orders granting his motions, or any of the documents
necessary for this court's consideration of the petition. See NRAP 21(a)(4)
SUPREME COURT
OF
NEVADA

(providing that petitioner shall submit an appendix containing all
documents "essential to understand[ing] the matters set forth in the
petition"). Therefore, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this
matter. See NRAP 21(b). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
