The EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT of the State of Nevada, IN AND FOR the COUNTY OF CLARK; and the Honorable Kerry Louise Earley, District Judge, Respondents, Stephen Rohbacher, Real Party in Interest.
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION
This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges an October 21, 2019, district court order denying a motion to continue trial. Petitioners also filed an emergency motion to stay trial pending our consideration of this writ petition, and we temporarily stayed trial, pending our receipt and consideration of any opposition to the stay motion. Real party in interest now has filed an opposition.
Having considered the parties’ arguments and supporting documentation, we conclude that our extraordinary intervention is not warranted in this matter. NRAP 21(b); Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004). Accordingly, we vacate our November 8, 2019, temporary stay and
ORDER the petition DENIED.1
