ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS OR PROHIBITION
This petition for a writ of mandamus or prohibition challenges a district court order denying a motion to dismiss in a corporations action. Having considered the petition and appendix filed in this matter, 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, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991); see NRAP 21(b)(1); Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 113 Nev. 1343, 1344, 950 P.2d 280, 281 (1997) (stating that this court only rarely considers writ petitions denying motions to dismiss or motions for summary judgment). In particular, petitioner may raise the issues identified in the writ petition in any appeal from an adverse final order. Int'l Game Tech., Inc. v. Second Judicial Dist. Court, 124 Nev. 193, 197, 179 P.3d 556, 558 (2008) (stating that an appeal is generally an adequate and speedy legal remedy precluding writ relief). Accordingly, we
ORDER the petition DENIED.
