IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

JOHNNY WILLIAM JOHNSON, III, No. 82389 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF FILE CLARK, Respondent, FEB 1 2 2021 and ELIZASETH A. BROWN CLERK OF SPPREME COURT CALVIN JOHNSON, WARDEN, DEPU4GIER "In Real Party in Interest.

ORDER DENYING PETITION

This original pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus challenges petitioner's conviction based upon alleged ineffective assistance of counsel. Having considered the petition, we are not persuaded that writ relief is warranted because petitioner has a plain, speedy, and adequate remedy available to him by way of an appeal from the district court's denial of such relief in the first instance. See NRAP 22 (An application for an original writ of habeas corpus should be made to the appropriate district court. If an application is rnade to the district court and denied, the proper remedy is by appeal from the district court's order denying the writ."); see also Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 224, 88 P.3d 840, 841 (2004) (writ relief is proper only when there is no plain, speedy, and

og)-04331 adequate remedy at law and the petitioner bears the burden of demonstrating that writ relief is warranted). Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
