                                      ORDER DENYING PETITION
                            This is a pro se petition for a writ of mandamus. Petitioner
                seeks an order directing the district court to vacate a conviction of child
                neglect. We have reviewed the 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.   See MRS 34.160; NRS

                34.170. 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).
                Accordingly, we
                            ORDER the petition DENIED.
