ORDER DENYING PETITION
FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS
This original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus seeks the
reversal of a district court "Order Denying Defendant's Motion for Relief
from Judgment or Order Pursuant to Rule 60 of the Nevada Rules of Civil
Procedure Based on New and Equitable Rules of Law Filed 10/2/2015."
This court has original jurisdiction to issue writs of mandamus
and the issuance of such extraordinary relief is within this court's sole
discretion. See Nev. Const. art. 6, § 4; D.R. Horton, Inc. v. Eighth Judicial
Dist. Court, 123 Nev. 468, 474-75, 168 P.3d 731, 736-37 (2007). Petitioner
bears the burden to show that extraordinary relief is warranted. See Pan
v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004).
Having considered the petition and supporting documentation, we conclude
that petitioner has failed to demonstrate our intervention by extraordinary
writ is warranted.
SUPREME COURT
OF
NEVADA
t1), 1447A
Therefore, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this
matter. See NRAP 21(b). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
