Docket Entries
Date	Type	Description	Pending?	Document
12/26/2023	Filing Fee	Petition Filing Fee Waived. Criminal. (SC)
12/26/2023	Petition/Writ	Filed Proper Person Petition for Writ of Mandamus/Prohibition. (SC)		23-41769
01/22/2024	Order/Dispositional	Filed Order Regarding Petition. As notices of appeal must be filed in the district court in the first instance, NRAP 4(a)(1), the document was construed and filed as an original petition for a writ of mandamus/prohibition. Upon further review, however, it appears that Smith is not seeking writ relief directly from this court, but rather this court's review of the district court's order denying such relief. NRAP 4(e) provides that a notice of appeal that is mistakenly filed in this court in the first instance is to be considered filed in the district court on the date it was received by this court. Accordingly, we direct the clerk of this court to send to the district court clerk the pro se document filed in this court on December 26, 2023, and received on December 20, 2023. Thereafter, this docket will be administratively closed. fn1[To the extent that Smith seeks writ relief from this court, such request is denied without prejudice.] (SC)		24-02459
01/29/2024	Notice/Incoming	Filed Real Party in Interest Notice of Appearance for Elsa Felgar. (SC)		24-03348
