Key v. Dist. Ct. (State, Dep't of Motor Vehicles)
Opinion
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
MARCI KEY, No. 70357 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK; FILED AND THE HONORABLE TIMOTHY C.
WILLIAMS, DISTRICT JUDGE, DEC 1 6 2016 Respondents, and THE STATE OF NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES, Real Party in Interest.
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF IVIANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION This original petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order granting a petition for judicial review and remanding in a driver's license revocation matter.
Having reviewed the petition and supporting documents, we conclude that our extraordinary intervention is not warranted. NRS 34.160 (mandamus scope); NRS 34.320 (prohibition scope); Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (recognizing that petitioner bears the burden to demonstrate that writ relief is warranted); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991). Petitioner has not demonstrated that the district court acted arbitrarily and capriciously or exceeded its jurisdiction when it remanded the matter to the administrative agency for a new hearing to cure a violation of petitioner's right to confront a declarant.
NRS 233B.135(3) (allowing the district court to remand on consideration of SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA
(0) 1.947A a petition for judicial review); see, e.g., Ramirez v. State, 114 Nev. 550, 563, 958 P.2d 724, 732 (1998) (remanding for a new trial upon determining that appellant's Confrontation Clause rights were violated). Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
