ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION

This original petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order denying, without prejudice, a motion for summary judgment or to dismiss based on lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Generally, this court will not consider writ petitions challenging district court orders denying motions for summary judgment or to dismiss. Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 113 N9v. 1343, 1344-45, 950 P.2d 280, 281 (1997). Moreover, we have recognized that petitions for writ relief should not be utilized as a vehicle for piecemeal appellate review. See W Cab Co. v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 133 Nev. 65, 67, 390 P.3d 662, 667 (2017). For this reason, an appeal is generally considered an adequate legal
