GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES INSURANCE COMPANY, D/B/A GEICO, A MARYLAND CORPORATION; AND GENEVA M. SIMMONS, Petitioners, v. THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CLARK; AND THE HONORABLE GLORIA STURMAN, DISTRICT JUDGE, Respondents, and JESUS BRIONES, AN INDIVIDUAL, Real Party in Interest.


ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS

This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a district court order denying in part a motion to dismiss in a tort action.

Having considered the petition and supporting documents, we are not persuaded that petitioner has met its burden of demonstrating that writ relief is warranted at this time. NRS 34.160; Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 224, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 841, 844 (2004); Beazer Homes Nev., Inc. v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 575, 578-79, 97 P.3d 1132, 1134 (2004) (recognizing that this court generally declines to entertain writ petitions challenging district court orders denying motions to dismiss). Accordingly, we

ORDER the petition DENIED.
