RUBEN PAUL PEREZ, A/K/A ENRIQUE ROCHA PEREZ, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying a petition for a writ of mandamus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Douglas W. Herndon, Judge.
This appeal has been submitted for decision without oral argument, NRAP 34(f)(3), and we conclude that the record is sufficient for our review and additional briefing is unwarranted. See Luckett v. Warden, 91 Nev. 681, 682, 541 P.2d 910, 911 (1975).
In his petition, appellant requested that the district court assign a "special master" to search the court's archives for his sentencing transcripts to determine whether his written judgment of conviction contains a clerical error. Appellant fails to demonstrate that the district court abused its discretion by denying his petition. See Kay v. Nunez, 122 Nev. 1100, 1105, 146 P.3d 801, 805 (2006) ("When reviewing a district court order resolving a petition for mandamus relief, this court considers whether the district court has abused its discretion."); see generally Bradley v. State, 109 Nev. 1090, 1095, 864 P.2d 1272, 1275 (1993) (discussing the effect of an oral sentence pronouncement). Accordingly, we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED. /s/_________, C.J.
