12/06/2024Order/ProceduralFiled Order Denying Motion. Appellant has filed a motion to transmit a video exhibit on a flash drive. To the extent appellant seeks leave to provide this court with a copy of the exhibit on a flash drive, the motion is denied because this court's rules contemplate that original exhibits that cannot be copied and included in the appendix be transmitted to this court by the district court clerk. To the extent appellant seeks transmission from the district court clerk, the motion is denied without prejudice because appellant does not specifically identify which exhibit he seeks to transmit. Appellant may file a renewed motion to transmit an exhibit in compliance with NRAP 30(d) within 7 days of the date of this order, if deemed warranted. Any renewed motion should identify the exhibit's name and assigned number or letter, as identified on the district court's exhibit lists, and the date of its admission in the district court.
