IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

MEGA METALS AND IRON, A No. 76974 NEVADA CORPORATION; SCOTT PARRIS, AN INDIVIDUAL; MARIO PLASCENSCIA, AN INDIVIDUAL; AND DMITRY GORTOVNIK, AN INDIVIDUAL, AND COLLECTIVELY IN THEIR CAPACITY AS OWNERS AND OFFICERS OF MEGA METALS AND IRON, FILE Petitioners, vs. OCT 1 2 2018 THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK OE SUPREME COURT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, BY DEPUTY CLERK IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK; AND THE HONORABLE NANCY L. ALLF, DISTRICT JUDGE, Respondents, and JOSEPH CHEN, AN INDIVIDUAL; AND CELIA CHEN, AN INDIVIDUAL, Real Parties in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order denying a motion for partial judgment on the pleadings. Having considered the petition and appendix filed in this matter, we are not convinced that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is warranted. See NRS 34.160; Halverson v. Miller, 124 Nev. 484, 487, 186 P.3d 893, 896 (2008) (recognizing that the decision to issue a writ of

g-cio cog mandamus "is solely within this court's discretion" and that petitioner bears the burden to establish that such extraordinary relief is appropriate). We therefore ORDER the petition DENIED.
