A NEVADA CORPORATION,

vs.
THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILE

ORDER DENYING PETITION
This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a
district court order denying a motion for judgment on the pleadings. Having
considered the petition and its supporting documentation, we are not
persuaded that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is
warranted. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88
P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (observing that the party seeking writ relief bears the
burden of showing such relief is warranted); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist.
Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 679, 818 P.2d 849, 851, 853 (1991) (recognizing
that writ relief is an extraordinary remedy and that this court has sole
discretion in determining whether to entertain a writ petition). Specifically,
we generally decline to exercise our discretion to grant writ petitions
challenging orders denying motions for judgment on the pleadings, and we
are not convinced any of the exceptions apply in this case. See Chur v.

OF
NEVADA
-0(42_18
Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 136 Nev. 68, 70, 458 P.3d 336, 339 (2020)
(discussing the exceptions to the general rule). We therefore
ORDER the petition DENIED.
