RICHARD ANTONIO WILLIAMS, Petitioner, v. JO GENTRY, WARDEN; JAMES DZURENDA, DIRECTOR NDOC; AND DWAYNE DEAL, OMD RECORDS DEP'T., Respondents.
ORDER DENYING PETITION
This original petition for a writ of mandamus appears to challenge a district court order that denied a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in which Richard Antonio Williams challenged the computation of time he has served. We have considered the petition and conclude Williams has failed to demonstrate our intervention by way of extraordinary writ is warranted. See 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"). Specifically, Williams has a plain, speedy, and adequate remedy available to him because he can appeal from the district court order denying his petition. See NRS 34.170; NRS 34.575(1). Accordingly, without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised, we
It appears Williams has filed an appeal from the district court order denying his petition and the appeal is pending in Docket No. 74797. --------
