process. 2 Cf. Huckabay Props., Inc. v. NC Auto Parts, LLC, 130 Nev. Adv.
Op. No. 23, 322 P.3d 429, 434 (2014) (recognizing that, under 'general
agency principles," "an attorney's act is considered to be that of the
client").
Additionally, because appellants' remaining arguments in
support of writ relief had not been made in justice bourt, the district court
was within its discretion to determine that those arguments did not
warrant the district court's extraordinary intervention. 3 See 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 is
discretionary with the presiding court). Accordingly, we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.

2 Based on counsel's same statements, the district court was also
within its discretion in concluding that (1) the agreement to accept service
of process was conditioned only on the temporary writ of restitution being
vacated and (2) appellants had waived the right to seek dismissal for
failure to timely serve process. Similarly, because the record contains
conflicting evidence as to what documents were served on appellants'
counsel, the district court was within its discretion to conclude that service
on counsel had been properly made.
3 Although the district court did not explicitly address appellants'
argument regarding the justice court's lack of jurisdiction, that argument
lacked merit. See NRS 4.370(1)(h); NRS 40.255(1).
