ORDER DENYING PETITION

This is a pro se original petition for a writ of habeas corpus.
Petitioner argues that he is being held hostage by the respondents. We
have reviewed the documents submitted in this matter, and without
deciding upon the merits of any claims raised therein, we decline to
exercise original jurisdiction in this matter. A challenge to the legality of
one’s restraint or detention should be raised in arpetition for a writ of
habeas corpus ﬁled in the district court in the ﬁret‘instance. See NRS
34.360; NRAP 22. Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
