# geku tin) C.J.

, J

. Pickering J. ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS

This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a

district court order that sustained objections to a special master's

recommendation to amend a case management order.

A writ of mandamus is available to compel the performance of

an act that the law requires as a duty resulting from an office, trust, or

station, or to control an arbitrary or capricious exercise of discretion. See

NRS 34.160; Int'l Game Tech., Inc. v. Second Judicial Dist. Court, 124

Nev. 193, 197, 179 P.3d 556, 558 (2008). Mandamus is an extraordinary

remedy, and whether a petition will be considered is entirely within this

court's discretion. Smith v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677,

679, 818 P.2d 849, 851, 853 (1991). Petitioners, moreover, bear the burden

of demonstrating that extraordinary relief is warranted. Pan v. Eighth

Judicial Dist. Court, 120 Nev. 222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004).

Having reviewed the petition and appendix, we are not

persuaded that our extraordinary intervention is warranted in this matter

which, from what appears, remains subject to further development in the

docket rendering petitioners' reliance on Young v. Johnny Ribeiro

Building, Inc., 106 Nev. 88, 787 P.2d 777 (1990), unavailing. Accordingly,
