Elaine Marjorie DAMBRA, Petitioner, v. The EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, in and for the County of Clark; and the Honorable James Crockett, District Judge, Respondents, Pablo Romero; and Blanca Margarita Romero, Real Parties in Interest.
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order striking trial testimony from petitioner's designated expert witness. Having considered the petition and supporting documents, we conclude that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is not warranted. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 679, 818 P.2d 849, 851, 853 (1991). In particular, this matter does not fit within any exception to the general policy against considering writ petitions challenging discovery decisions, see Club Vista Fin. Servs., LLC v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 128 Nev. 224, 228, 276 P.3d 246, 249 (2012), and we are not persuaded that an appeal from a final judgment is an inadequate legal remedy, see Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841. Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
