R.O. Brooks FRESHWADDA, Petitioner, v. The EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT of the State of Nevada, IN AND FOR the COUNTY OF CLARK; and the Honorable Adriana R. White, District Judge, Respondents, Paula Ramonda, Real Party in Interest.
ORDER DISMISSING EMERGENCY PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS AND PROHIBITION
This emergency petition for a writ of mandamus and prohibition seeks disqualification of the district judge presiding over the child custody matter below and to vacate the judge's prior decisions.
On December 8, 2025, this court issued a notice informing petitioner that the filing fee and an appendix to the petition were due within 14 days. When petitioner failed to respond, real party in interest filed a motion to dismiss based on failure to pay the filing fee. Petitioner has not opposed the motion or otherwise addressed the filing fee issue in any way. Accordingly, the motion is granted, and we hereby dismiss the writ petition for failure to pay the filing fee. NRAP 21(g).
It is so ORDERED.1
FOOTNOTES
1. Real party in interest's emergency motion asking this court to declare petitioner a vexatious litigant, reject any future filings from him, and order him to immediately return the parties’ child is denied. See Jordan v. State ex rel. Dep't of Motor Vehicles & Pub. Safety, 121 Nev. 44, 58, 110 P.3d 30, 41 (2005), abrogated in part by Buzz Stew, LLC v. City of North Las Vegas, 124 Nev. 224, 181 P.3d 670 (2008) (discussing vexatious litigant orders). The proper forum in which to seek relief relating to the return of the child is the district court.
