Pletcher v. Dist. Ct. (Boulevard Theater, LLC) ( 2014 )

  •                 NRS 34.160; Int? Game Tech., Inc. v. Second Judicial Dist. Court, 
    124 Nev. 193
    , 197, 
    179 P.3d 556
    , 558 (2008). Writ relief is typically not
    available, however, when the petitioner has a plain, speedy, and adequate
    remedy at law. See NRS 34.170; NRS 34.330; Int? Game Tech., 124 Nev.
    at 197, 179 P.3d at 558. Generally, an appeal is an adequate legal remedy
    precluding writ relief. Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 
    120 Nev. 222
    ,
    224, 
    88 P.3d 840
    , 841 (2004).
    Having considered the petition and its attachments, we
    conclude that our intervention by way of extraordinary writ relief is not
    warranted, as petitioner has an adequate legal remedy in that, once a
    final judgment resolving all of the claims in the underlying case has been
    entered, see Lee v. GNLV Corp.,      
    116 Nev. 424
    , 426, 
    996 P.2d 416
    , 417
    (2000) (clarifying that "a final judgment is one that disposes of all the
    issues presented in the case, and leaves nothing for the future
    consideration of the court, except for post-judgment issues such as
    attorney's fees and costs"), he may appeal from that judgment to the
    extent that he is aggrieved.    See Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 
    88 P.3d at 841
    .
    Accordingly, we deny the petition.     See NRAP 21(b)(1); Smith v. Eighth
    Judicial Dist. Court, 
    107 Nev. 674
    , 677, 
    818 P.2d 849
    , 851 (1991)
    (providing that whether to consider a writ petition is within this court's
    discretion).
    It is so ORDERED.
