Opinion

ORDER DENYING PETITION

This is an original petition for writ of prohibition or, in the alternative, writ of mandamus. Petitioner Wells Fargo seeks a writ of either prohibition or mandamus that would allow the underlying action, which the district court stayed, to proceed. The district court granted the stay pending a decision from the Ninth Circuit in Wells Fargo Bank v. Fidelity National Title Insurance, Case No. 19-17332. As the Ninth Circuit has issued that decision, Wells Fargos petition is moot and no exceptions to the mootness doctrine appear to apply. See Personhood Nev. v. Bristol, 126 Nev. 599, 602, 245 P.3d 572, 574 (2010) (discussing the exceptions to the mootness doctrine). We therefore decline to consider it. See Univ. of Nev. v. Tarkanian, 95 Nev. 389, 394, 594 P.2d 1159, 1162 (1979) (explaining that this court does not consider moot issues). Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
