EDWARD LORD; AND NETWORK REALTY, INC., Petitioners, v. THE SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF WASHOE; AND THE HONORABLE EGAN K. WALKER, DISTRICT JUDGE, Respondents, and STEPHENS & EDWARDS, LLP, Real Party in Interest.
ORDER DENYING PETITION
This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order denying a motion to disqualify the presiding judge. Having considered the petition and appendices filed in this matter, we are not convinced that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is warranted. See NRS 34.160; Halverson v. Miller, 124 Nev. 484, 487, 186 P.3d 893, 896 (2008) (recognizing that the decision to issue a writ of mandamus "is solely within this court's discretion" and that petitioner bears the burden to establish that such extraordinary relief is appropriate). We therefore
ORDER the petition DENIED.
