03/06/2003Order/DispositionalFiled Order Denying Petition. Order Denying Petition for Writ of Mandamus. fn1[We direct the clerk of this court to amend the caption on this court's docket to reflect the caption on this order. The petition erroneously indicated that the underlying district court action took place in Eureka County. The documentation before us indicates that the action occurred in White Pine County. Inasmuch as Eureka County and White Pine County are both in the Seventh Judicial District, and the proper district judge was served and has filed an answer, it appears that no prejudice ha resulted from this error. We nevertheless direct the clerk of this court to serve a courtesy copy of this court's June 11 order upon the White Pine County Clerk so that the district court file will be complete.] fn2[We conclude that petitioner has demonstrated good cause for waiving the filing fee in this matter, see NRAP 21(e), and so no filing fee is due. We grant petitioner's request to appear in proper person for the limited purpose of filing the petition received on May 9, 2002, and the motion to proceed in forma pauperis received on May 9, 2002, and we direct the clerk of this court to file these documents. We have reviewed the remaining documents submitted by petitioner, and conclude that any relief requested is not warranted at this time.] "ORDER the petition DENIED." NNP03-RR/WM/MG 03-03744
