ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION
This original petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order requiring petitioner to produce an unredacted copy of a lease termination agreement.
Issues regarding discovery and scheduling are within the district court's discretion, and petitioner has not demonstrated that the district court has exercised its discretion arbitrarily or capriciously so that writ relief is warranted. Int'l Fidelity Ins. v. State of Nevada, 114 Nev. 1061, 967 P.2d 804 (1998) (stating that the district court has broad discretion in addressing internal matters); Hetter v. District Court, 110 Nev. 513, 874 P.2d 762 (1994) (providing that writ relief is generally unavailable for discovery matters, with two exceptions not applicable here). Accordingly, writ relief is not warranted, NRS 34.160 ; NRS 34.320 ; Smith v. District Court, 107 Nev. 674, 818 P.2d 849 (1991), and we
In light of this order, we deny as moot petitioner's emergency motion for a stay.
