SAMUEL THOMAS RIOS, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.

ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE

This is a proper person appeal from an order of the district court denying a petition for a writ of mandamus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Valorie J. Vega, Judge.

This appeal has been submitted for decision without oral argument, NRAP 34(f)(3), and we conclude that the record is sufficient for our review and briefing is unwarranted. See Luckett v. Warden, 91 Nev. 681, 682, 541 P.2d 910, 911 (1975).

In his petition filed on February 19, 2013, appellant sought an order directing his counsel to mail him a copy of the case file. The district court concluded that this issue had already been addressed as counsel represented that he had mailed appellant the file. In addition, appellant did not demonstrate that he had no other adequate remedy with which to address this issue. See NRS 7.055(2); NRS 34.170; Round Hill Gen. Improvement Dist. v. Newman, 97 Nev. 601, 603-04, 637 P.2d 534, 536 (1981). Therefore, the district court did not err in denying the petition. Accordingly, we

ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
