THE STATE OF NEVADA; AND BY _ - CLERK WILLIAM HUTCHINGS, WARDEN, Real Parties in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION

This original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition appears to challenge petitioner's sentence for use of a deadly weapon, which he contends violates double jeopardy. Petitioner also argues that his sentence structure is illegal. A challenge to a judgment of conviction must be raised in a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed in the district court in the first instance. See NRS 34.724; NRS 34.738; NRAP 22.
