Talley (Maurice) Vs. Dist. Ct. (State)

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA MAURICE DANIEL TALLEY, No. 80219 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF

FILED CLARK, Respondent, and THE STATE OF NEVADA; AND BRIAN WILLIAMS, WARDEN, Real Parties in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

This original pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus challenges the constitutionality of Nevada's robbery and kidnapping statutes and raises a claim of double jeopardy.

Problematically, petitioner has not provided this court with exhibits or other documentation that would support his claims for relief. See NRAP 21(a)(4) (providing the petitioner shall submit an appendix containing all documents "essential to understand the matters set forth in the petition"). Therefore, without deciding the merits of the claims raised, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this matter, see NRAP 21(b); Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) CPetitioner[ ] carr[ies] the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted.").

Moreover, we note that a challenge to a judgment of conviction must be raised in a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed
