CACI v. The State of Nevada, Real Party in Interest. (2026)

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION

This petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order denying petitioner's motion to suppress evidence in a criminal trial. Petitioner has also filed an emergency motion to stay the district court proceedings pending our consideration of this petition.

Having considered the petition and supporting documents, we are not persuaded that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is warranted. NRAP 21(b); see Pan v. Eighth Jud. Dist. Ct., 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (observing that the party seeking writ relief bears the burden of showing such relief is warranted); Smith v. Eighth Jud. Dist. Ct., 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991) (recognizing that writ relief is an extraordinary remedy and that this court has sole discretion in determining whether to entertain a writ petition). Trial is scheduled to begin next week, and petitioner may raise these issues in an appeal from any judgment of conviction. See Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841 (recognizing “that the right to appeal is generally an adequate legal remedy that precludes writ relief”). Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.¹
