GUSTAVO HERNANDEZ, JR., Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


UNPUBLISHED OPINION

ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE

Gustavo Hernandez, Jr., appeals from an order of the district court denying a motion for modification of sentence. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jacqueline M. Bluth, Judge.

Hernandez argues the district court erred by denying his May 5, 2022, motion. In his motion, Hernandez claimed that the trial court erred by denying his pretrial request to represent himself. Hernandez's claim fell outside the narrow scope of claims permissible in a motion to modify sentence. See Edwards v. State, 112 New. 704, 708, 918 P.2d 321, 324 (1996). Therefore, without considering the merits of this claim, we conclude the district court did not err by denying the motion. Accordingly, we

ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.

Hon. Jacqueline M. Bluth, District Judge
