DAVID LEVOYD REED, Petitioner, v. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK, Respondent, and THE STATE OF NEVADA, Real Party in Interest.

cc: David Levoyd Reed Attorney General/Carson City Clark County District Attorney Eighth District Court Clerk


ORDER DENYING PETITION

This original petition for a writ of mandamus seeks an order directing the district court to reverse and vacate the denial of David Levoyd Reed's postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus that challenged the computation of time Reed has served. Because Reed can challenge the district court's decision on appeal, NRS 34.575(1), he has a plain, speedy, and adequate remedy at law and, therefore, this court's intervention by way of an extraordinary writ is not warranted, NRS 34.170. Accordingly, without reaching the merit of any claims raised, we

We express no opinion as to whether Reed could meet the procedural requirements for filing an appeal. See NRS 34.575(1); NRAP 4(b). --------

ORDER the petition DENIED.
