ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
This original, emergency petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a preliminary district court order concluding that petitioners two minor children should remain in protective custody pending further proceedings under NRS Chapter 432B.
Having reviewed the petition and supporting documentation, we are not convinced that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is warranted. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (observing that the party seeking writ relief bears the burden of showing such relief is warranted); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991) (recognizing that writ relief is an extraordinary remedy and that this court has sole discretion in determining whether to entertain a writ petition). In particular, while petitioner challenges the district courts preliminary protective custody findings and the representations upon which they are based, an adjudicatory hearing is scheduled for tomorrow, at which the parties may have an opportunity to present additional evidence and argument. Accordingly, we conclude that extraordinary relief is not warranted at this time, and we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
