ORDER DENYING PETITION

Petition for a writ of mandamus that challenges a district court order adjudicating an attorney lien. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Tierra Danielle Jones, Judge. This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order adjudicating an attorney lien. The petitioner, Daniel Simon, challenges the quantum meruit award of $200,000 as insufficient for the work he performed. However, we reviewed that order in a direct appeal in Docket No. 77678, where we vacated the quantum meruit award and remanded for further findings. Accordingly, in light of the order entered in Docket No. 77678, we deny as moot Simon's writ petition. See Smith v.
