IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
LAURA PATRICIO-BELLIZZI AND No. 81634 HOLLI JEAN GARRETSON, IN THEIR CAPACITIES AS CO- FÆ V: ADMINISTRATORS OF THE ESTATE FL OF ANGELINA Q. SHADEN, Appellants, NOV 1 3 na vs. ELZArf.. 8ROv,14 CLERK OF REME COURT NORMA HILL; AND JENNIFER HILL, SY DEPUTY CLERK Res • ondents.
ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE This is an appeal from a district court order granting a motion to change venue.1 Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Trevor L. Atkin, Judge. Respondents filed a demand for a change of venue, but the demand contained two typographical errors. Less than a month later, and before the demand and motion for a change of venue were heard, respondents filed an amended demand for a change of venue, which corrected the typographical errors. The district court granted the change of venue and appellants now appeal. Respondents demand for a change of venue was timely filed, see NRS 13.050(1)(a) (requiring a defendant seeking a change in venue to file a demand before the time to answer has expired), and preceded respondents' motion for a change of venue, see Nevada Transit Co. v. Harris Brothers Lumber Co., 80 Nev. 465, 468-69, 396 P.2d 133, 134 (1964) (explaining that a motion for a change of venue does not meet the

• aria requirement that a written demand for a change of venue be filed). While the demand contained two typographical errors, those errors were quickly corrected. See Tunnicliff v. Holmes, 232 P. 148, 149 (Cal. Dist. Ct. App. 1924) (concluding that a typographical error in a demand for a change of venue did not defeat the demand). Thus, we conclude the district court did not err in granting the motion to change venue. Accordingly, we ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
