State, 108 Nev. 651, 657-58, 837 P.2d 1349, 1353 (1992) (distinguishing
Burton on the facts); and found that the letter was not sufficient on its
own to warrant a new trial. Based on this record, we conclude Chartier
has failed to demonstrate that the district court abused its discretion by
denying his motion. Accordingly, we
            ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
