ORDER DENYING PETITION

This original petition for a writ of prohibition challenges the district court's order denying a motion to dismiss a civil action on the ground that the amount in controversy is below the district court's jurisdictional limit. We decline to exercise our discretion to consider the petition because the legal issue raised was not well-developed therein or in the motion papers filed in district court. See Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991) (stating that issuance of writ of prohibition is discretionary). Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
