ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

This is an original petition for a writ of mandamus challenging a district court order denying petitioner's motion to dismiss on the basis that real party in interest's tort complaint sounds in negligence and falls within the scope of NRS 41A.015—requiring an expert affidavit.

Having considered petitioner's arguments and the supporting documents, we are not persuaded that our extraordinary and discretionary intervention is warranted. 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, petitioner has an adequate remedy in the form of an appeal from a final judgment.

Pan, 120 Nev. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841. Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
