ANGEL TORRES, 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.
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS
In this original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus, petitioner seeks a writ directing the district court to rule on his petition for a writ of habeas corpus, which he alleges he filed on October 11, 2019, within the next 30 days.
We have reviewed the documents submitted in this matter and, without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised therein, we decline to exercise our original jurisdiction in this matter. See NRS 34.160; NRAP 21(b)(1); 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.").
We expect the district court will resolve all pending matters as expeditiously as its calendar permits. See NRS 34.740. Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
