ORDER DENYING PETITION

This is an original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to compel the district court to vacate appellants conviction. We have reviewed the limited documents submitted in this matter, and without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised therein, we decline to exercise original jurisdiction in this matter. NRS 34.160; NRS 34.170; Pan v. Eighth Jud. Dist. Ct., 120 Nev. 222, 224, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 841, 844 (2004). A challenge to the validity of the 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. NRS 34.724(2)(b); NRS 34.738(1). Further, petitioner has not provided this court with exhibits or documentation that would support his claims for relief.
