Opinion
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
TAMAS HORVATH, No. 82016 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK, FILED Respondent, and THE STATE OF NEVADA; CHARLES DANIELS, DIRECTOR, NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS; AND PERRY RUSSELL, WARDEN, Real Parties in Interest.
ORDER DENYING PETITION This pro se petition for a writ of mandamus seeks to enforce a district court order that granted a petition for a writ of habeas corpus and directed the State to deliver petitioner to the custody of federal authorities.
We have reviewed the documents submitted in this matter, and without deciding upon the merits of any claims raised therein, we decline to exercise original jurisdiction in this matter. Petitioner should file a petition for a writ of mandamus challenging the actions of the real parties in interest in the district court in the first instance. See Round Hill Gen. Improvement Dist. v. Newman, 97 Nev. 601, 604, 637 P.2d 534, 536 (1981) (explaining that appellate court is not suited to resolve factual disputes and therefore will not exercise its discretion to entertain a mandamus petition when there are factual questions). He can then appeal from any adverse decision. See
"We express no opinion as to the merits of any remedies pursued in the district court.
45;: tt-•: NRS 2.090(2) (providing that an order granting or refusing to grant mandamus is appealable). Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
