JAMES WILLIAMS, 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: James Williams Attorney General/Carson City Clark County District Attorney Eighth District Court Clerk
ORDER DENYING PETITION
This is an original petition for a writ of habeas corpus and request for an evidentiary hearing in which James Williams seeks to have this court reverse his justice court conviction for conducting business on a public right-of-way. Williams challenges his conviction and argues Clark County Code 6.04.130 is unconstitutional. We have considered the petition on file and we are not satisfied this court's intervention by way of extraordinary writ is warranted because Williams has not demonstrated the remedy of an appeal to the district court is inadequate. See State v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court (Hedlund), 116 Nev. 127, 134, 994 P.2d 692, 696-97 (2002) ("[D]istrict courts have final appellate jurisdiction in cases arising in justice's court."). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
