Opinion
consecutive sentences, and we decline Estes' invitation to compel such a requirement. See, e.g., Hughes v. State, 116 Nev. 327, 333, 996 P.2d 890, 893 (2000) (noting that "this court has never required the district courts to utter 'talismanic' phrases" and instead "looks to the record as a whole to determine whether the sentencing court actually exercised its discretion"). We conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion, Houk v. State, 103 Nev. 659, 664, 747 P.2d 1376, 1379 (1987), and we ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
