ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION This original petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order granting a motion to evict petitioners from Don Tortaco Mexican Grill units 1, 13, and 19.

The writ of mandamus is available to compel the performance of an act that the law requires or to control an arbitrary or capricious exercise of discretion, while its counterpart, the writ of prohibition, is available to curb an act outside of or in excess of the district courfs jurisdiction.

ii-4-15221 our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is not warranted. See NRAP 21(b); Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (providing that petitioners bear the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991) (explaining that it is within this coures sole discretion to determine if a writ petition will be considered). Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.'
