JILL OSWALT, M.D.; AND MICHAEL BY DEPUTY C-LERK GERBER, Real Parties in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

This is an original petition for a writ of mandamus, or in the alternative, a writ of prohibition, challenging a district court order denying a motion for summary judgment and a district court order adjudicating an attorney lien. Problematically, petitioner has not provided this court with exhibits or other documentation that would support his claims for relief. See NRAP 21(a)(4) (providing the petitioner shall submit an appendix containing all documents "essential to understand the matters set forth in the petition"). Therefore, without deciding the merits of the claims raised, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this matter, see
