ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges district court orders regarding the tracing of assets in a divorce. Having considered the petition and appendices filed in this matter, we are not convinced that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is warranted as petitioner's arguments are defeated by this court's prior opinion in Klabacka v. Nelson, 133 Nev. 164, 394 P.3d 940 (2017). See NRS 34.160; Halverson v. Miller, 124 Nev. 484, 487, 186 P.3d 893, 896 (2008) (recognizing that the decision to issue a writ of mandamus “is solely within this court's discretion” and that petitioner bears the burden to establish that such extraordinary relief is appropriate). We therefore

ORDER the petition DENIED.
