DELBERT ROY DOUGLAS, Petitioner, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


ORDER DENYING PETITION

On July 6, 2017, petitioner Delbert Roy Douglas filed the instant "Request for Judicial Notice; Notice to the Court Under ADKT 411" in which Douglas requests this court to direct the district court to provide him an opportunity to file a supplement to his postconviction petition and order the State to file an answer. We construe the document as an original petition for a writ of mandamus. We have considered the petition, and we are not satisfied this court's intervention by way of extraordinary writ is warranted at this time. See NRS 34.160; Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) ("Petitioner[ ] carr[ies] the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted."). Accordingly, without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
