IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

DEONDRE JOHNSON, No. 75674 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK; FILE AND THE HONORABLE DOUGLAS W. HERNDON, DISTRICT JUDGE, SEP 1 20 8 ELI A. BRo Respondents, c F CO and BY. DEPU TY CL E THE STATE OF NEVADA, Real Party in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION This petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges the denial of a pretrial petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Having reviewed the petition, we conclude that this court's intervention by way of extraordinary writ is not warranted because petitioner has a plain, speedy, and adequate remedy at law by way of an appeal from any judgment of conviction. See NRS 34.170; Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 224, 88 P.3d 840, 841 (2004) ("[T]he right to appeal is generally an adequate legal remedy that precludes writ relief"); see also Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991) (recognizing that the issuance of a writ of mandamus is discretionary). Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
