AARON K. DANIELS, Petitioner, v. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK; AND THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS W. HERNDON, DISTRICT JUDGE, Respondents, and THE STATE OF NEVADA, Real Party in Interest.
An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.
ORDER DENYING PETITION
This is a pro se petition for a writ of mandamus. Petitioner Aaron Daniels asks this court to direct the district court to reverse its order denying Daniels' petition in which he requested an order be issued to the Offender's Management Division regarding the entry of his credit for time served.
We have reviewed the documents submitted in this matter, and without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised therein, we decline to exercise original jurisdiction in this matter. See NRS 34.160; NRS 34.170. Any challenge to the computation of time served must be raised in a post-conviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed in the district court in the first instance, see NRS 34.724(2)(c); NRS 34.738(1), and the proper remedy is an appeal to this court from the district court's order denying the writ, see NRAP 22. Accordingly, we
We express no opinion as to whether Daniels could meet the procedural requirements of NRAP 4(b) or NRS chapter 34.
ORDER the petition DENIED.
