Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

ELAINE MARJORIE DAMBRA, No. 75113 Petitioner, vs.

THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA,

IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK;

AND THE HONORABLE JAMES

CROCKETT, DISTRICT JUDGE,

Respondents, and

PABLO ROMERO; AND BLANCA

MARGARITA ROMERO,

Real Parties in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order striking trial testimony from petitioner's designated expert witness. Having considered the petition and supporting documents, we conclude that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is not warranted. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 679, 818 P.2d 849, 851, 853 (1991). In particular, this matter does not fit within any exception to the general policy against considering writ petitions challenging discovery decisions, see Club Vista Fin. Servs., LLC v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 128 Nev. 224, 228, 276 P.3d 246, 249 (2012), SUPREME COURT

(0) 1947A c44.*D and we are not persuaded that an appeal from a final judgment is an inadequate legal remedy, see Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841. Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
