ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION

We have reviewed the documents submitted in this matter and, without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised herein, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this matter. See NRS 34.160; NRS 34.330; NRAP 21(b)(1); Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (Petitioned j cardies] the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted.").

Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841 C [11 he right to appeal is generally an adequate legal remedy that precludes
