 9                             MEMORANDUM OPINION

10 KENNEDY, Judge.

11         Defendants, John Walck and Alfred Walck, pro se, appeal from the district

12 court’s order entering a final judgment on the merits and granting injunctive and

13 declaratory relief. We issued a notice of proposed summary disposition proposing

14 summary affirmance. Defendant has filed a timely memorandum in opposition. We

15 affirm.

16         In our calendar notice, we informed Defendants that their docketing statement

17 did not conform to our rules of appellate procedure. Specifically, the docketing

18 statement does not contain an intelligible statement of the issues, nor does it indicate

19 whether and how the issues were preserved. See Rule 12-208(D)(4) NMRA (stating

20 that the docketing statement shall contain a statement of the issues presented including

21 a statement of how they arose and how they were preserved in the trial court).


                                              2
 1 Additionally, the docketing statement does not contain a statement of the case

 2 summarizing all facts material to a consideration of the issues presented as required

 3 by Rule 12-208(D)(3) NMRA. Accordingly, we informed Defendants in our notice

 4 of proposed summary disposition that they should set out all relevant information in

 5 their memorandum in opposition, should they oppose our proposed summary

 6 affirmance.

 7        Defendants have now filed a memorandum in opposition with this Court.

 8 However, the memorandum in opposition does not contain the information we

 9 requested in our notice of proposed summary disposition. We still have no recitation

10 of the facts and evidence presented below and no statement of how the issues

11 presented for appeal arose or were preserved. Without this information, we cannot

12 review Defendants’ issues.

13        We note that Defendants attached documents to their memorandum in

14 opposition including copies of the complaint, survey maps, orders in the district court,

15 and copies of photographs. However, none of these documents provide us with the

16 information we would need to address Defendants’ appeal. It is the duty of the

17 appellant to provide a record adequate to review the issues on appeal. Williams v. Bd.

18 of County Comm’rs of San Juan County, 1998-NMCA-090, ¶ 10, 125 N.M. 445, 963

19 P.2d 522. “Upon a doubtful or deficient record, every presumption is indulged in


                                              3
 1 favor of the correctness and regularity of the trial court’s decision, and the appellate

 2 court will indulge in reasonable presumptions in support of the order entered.” Reeves

 3 v. Wimberly, 107 N.M. 231, 236, 755 P.2d 75, 80 (Ct. App. 1988). Pro se litigants

 4 must comply with the rules and orders of the court and will not be treated differently

 5 from litigants with counsel. See Bruce v. Lester, 1999-NMCA-051, ¶ 4, 127 N.M.

 6 301, 980 P.2d 84; see also Clayton v. Trotter, 110 N.M. 369, 373, 796 P.2d 262, 266

 7 (Ct. App. 1990) (stating that the appellate court will review pro se arguments to the

 8 best of its ability, but cannot respond to unintelligible arguments); Santistevan v.

 9 Centinel Bank of Taos, 96 N.M. 734, 737, 634 P.2d 1286, 1289 (Ct. App.), aff’d in

10 part and rev’d in part, 96 N.M. 730, 634 P.2d 1282 (stating that the Court of Appeals

11 will not review unclear arguments).

12        For these reasons, we have no choice but to affirm the district court.

13        IT IS SO ORDERED.
