State v. Dist. Ct. (Vanhorn)

Court, 124 Nev. 193, 197, 179 P.3d 556, 558 (2008). Writ relief is typically not available, however, when petitioner has a plain, speedy, and adequate remedy at law. See NRS 34.170; NRS 34.330; Int? Game Tec., 124 Nev. at 197, 179 P.3d at 558. Whether to consider a writ petition is within this court's discretion. Smith, 107 Nev. at 677, 818 P.2d at 851. Petitioner bears the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted. Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004). Having considered the petition, we conclude that petitioner has an adequate legal remedy in the form of an appeal from any adverse judgment, and it may challenge the district court's interlocutory order denying its motion for judgment on the pleadings in the context of that appeal. See NRS 34.170; NRS 34.330; Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841 (explaining that an appeal is generally an adequate legal remedy precluding writ relief); Consol. Generator-Nev., Inc. v. Cummins Engine Co., 114 Nev. 1304, 1312, 971 P.2d 1251, 1256 (1998) (explaining that interlocutory orders may be challenged in the context of an appeal from the final judgment). Accordingly, we deny the petition. See NRAP 21(b)(1); Smith, 107 Nev. at 677, 818 P.2d at 851. It is so ORDERED. Piek&tw, ' , J.
