IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

EMERSON JOINER, No. 70045 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILED IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK; AND THE HONORABLE FEB 1 7 2017 ELIZABETH GOFF GONZALEZ, ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT DISTRICT JUDGE, BY € • \ DEPUIYettS C _E.4t4ba" Respondents, and THE STATE OF NEVADA, Real Party in Interest.

ORDER GRANTING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS This original petition for a writ of certiorari, mandamus, or, alternatively, prohibition challenges the district court's denial of petitioner Emerson Joiner's motion to dismiss.

Joiner seeks to dismiss his pending prosecution for violating the conditions of his lifetime supervision as a sex offender. Lawful conditions of lifetime supervision are limited to those expressly enumerated in the supervision statute, NRS 213.1243. McNeill v. State, Nev., Adv. Op. 54, 375 P.3d 1022, 1026 (2016). The charge against Joiner alleges in a single count that he violated the terms of his lifetime supervision by failing to enroll in sex offender counseling, committing the crime of battery, and failing to cooperate with his supervisor. These conditions are not included among those enumerated in NRS 213.1243 and thus are unlawful. Joiner may not be prosecuted for violating conditions that were unlawfully imposed, see McNeill, 132 Nev., Adv. Op. 54, 375 P.3d at 1026. While Joiner has other legal remedies, we exercise our SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA (0) 1947A clapp. ,7 . 0 5 70 o discretion to issue a writ of mandamus because Joiner is clearly entitled to dismissal of the charge such that his continued prosecution would result in a miscarriage of justice and judicial economy militates in favor of mandamus relief, see NRS 34.160; McNeill, 132 Nev., Adv. Op. 54, 375 P.3d at 1026; State v. Babayan, 106 Nev. 155, 175-76, 787 P.2d 805, 819- (1990).' Accordingly, we ORDER the petition GRANTED AND DIRECT THE CLERK OF THIS COURT TO ISSUE A WRIT OF MANDAMUS instructing the district court to grant Joiner's motion to dismiss.

'As McNeill is dispositive, we decline to reach Joiner's remaining claims for relief. See Louie v. State, 108 Nev. 488, 490 n.3, 835 P.2d 20, 22 n.3 (1992). We reject the State's contention that this petition should be denied as moot because the underlying case remains open. And we reject Joiner's request to examine the scope of his lifetime supervision provisions as applied in a separate pending case.
