Respondents, DEPUTY CLERK

and THE STATE OF NEVADA, Real Party in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION

This petition for a writ of mandamus seeks an order delineating the constitutionally proper protocol for determining pretrial bail/detention and an order directing the lower court to apply the protocol as needed in the instant matter. We deny the petition as moot because petitioner is no longer in custody and fails to demonstrate that this issue is capable of repetition yet evading review. See Binegar v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 112 Nev. 544, 548-49, 915 P.2d 889, 892 (1996); see also Smith v. District Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991). Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
