extraordinary writ relief is warranted. NRS 34.160; Smith, 107 Nev. at 677, 818 P.2d at 851. Petitioner has legal remedies that may be pursued in the district court. In particular, petitioner may request the appointment of counsel, see NRS 432B.420(1), may pursue legal options for placement of his child with a guardian under NRS 432B.466-.468, and may move to disqualify a judge. See NRS 1.235. Under these circumstances, we conclude that writ relief is unnecessary at this time and we deny the petition. See NRAP 21(b)(1), Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841. 1 It is so ORDERED.
