ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION
This original petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order denying, without prejudice, a motion for summary judgment or to dismiss based on lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

Court, 113 N9v. 1343, 1344-45, 950 P.2d 280, 281 (1997). Moreover, we have recognized that petitions for writ relief should not be utilized as a vehicle for piecemeal appellate review. See W Cab Co. v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 133 Nev. 65, 67, 390 P.3d 662, 667 (2017). For this reason, an appeal is generally considered an adequate legal
