GENE ANTHONY ALLEN, Petitioner, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DENYING PETITION
This original pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus appears to seek an order compelling a determination that petitioner is eligible for parole. Such a writ should be sought in the district court in the first instance, and an adverse ruling below may be challenged by way of an appeal. See NRAP 22 ("An application for an original writ of habeas corpus should be made to the appropriate district court. If an application is made to the district court and denied, the proper remedy is by appeal from the district court's order denying the writ."). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
