ANGELO FERGUSON, Petitioner, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DENYING PETITION
This is an original petition for writ of mandamus. Although the cover page of the petition asks this court to order attorney Lynne Bigley to visit petitioner, the body of the petition asks this court to order the district court to enter a written order resolving a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus that was filed in 2001, before petitioner was charged or convicted. Because it is unclear what relief petitioner is seeking, we conclude petitioner has failed to demonstrate this court's intervention by way of extraordinary writ is warranted at this time. See 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 therein, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
