IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

DAVID LEVOYD REED, No. 82795 Petitioner, vs. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF FILE CLARK; AND THE HONORABLE MONICA TRUJILLO, DISTRICT MAY O 7 2021 JUDGE, ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT Respondents, BY and DEPUIY CLERK

THE STATE OF NEVADA, Real Party in Interest.

• ORDER DENYING PETITION

FOR A WRIT OF MANDAMUS

In this original pro se petition for a pretrial writ of mandamus, David Levoyd Reed seeks a writ directing the district court to dismiss case no. C-18-329762-1 or, in the alternative, to order him remanded into custody at the Clark County Detention Center.

This court has discretion as to whether to entertain a petition for extraordinary relief and will not do so when the petitioner has a plain, speedy, and adequate remedy at law. NRS 34.170; Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 224, 88 P.3d 840, 841 (2004). Petitioner bears the burden of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted. Pan, 120 Nev. at 228, 88 P.3d at 844.

Here, Reed raises several claims—including challenging the State's failure to transport him for various hearings and asserting that his counsel was ineffective. We conclude that Reed has an adequate remedy at law by way of direct appeal from any judgment of conviction. NRS 177.015(3); NRS 177.045. Accordingly, we ORDER the petition DENIED.
