ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order denying a motion to dismiss fraud and conspiracy claims against a real estate agent and broker pursuant to NRS 645.251. Having considered the petition and supporting documents, we decline to intervene at this time, as an adequate remedy exists in the form of an appeal from any adverse final judgment. NRS 34.170; Int'l Game Tech., Inc. v. Second Judicial Dist. Court, 124 Nev. 193, 197, 179 P.3d 556, 558 (2008); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 113 Nev. 1343, 1344, 950 P.2d 280, 281 (1997) (noting that this court will generally not consider writ petitions challenging orders denying motions to dismiss); Moore v. Eighth Judicial Dist Court, 96 Nev. 415, 417, 610 P.2d 188, 189 (1980) (determining that intervention is not appropriate if it would not dispose of the entire controversy, since the avoidance of a needless trial is not possible). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
