                       Respondents,

                       MARIO OPIPARI,
                       Real Party in Interest.

                           ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR A WRIT OF PROHIBITION
                                           OR MANDAMUS

                                     This original pro se petition for a writ of mandamus and/or
                       prohibition challenges several temporary district court custodial orders.'
                                     This court has original jurisdiction to issue writs of mandamus
                       and prohibition, and the issuance of such extraordinary relief is solely
                       within this court's discretion. See Nev. Const. art. 6, § 4; D.R. Horton, Inc.
                       v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 123 Nev. 468, 474-75, 168 P.3d 731, 736-37
                       (2007). Petitioner bears the burden to show that extraordinary relief is
                       warranted, and such relief is proper only when there is no plain, speedy,
                       and adequate remedy at law. See Pan v. Eighth Judicial Dist, Court, 120
                       Nev. 222, 224, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 841, 844 (2004). An appeal is generally an
                       adequate legal remedy precluding writ relief. Id. at 224, 88 P.3d at 841.

                           Even when an appeal is not immediately available because the challenged
                           order is interlocutory in nature, the fact that the order may ultimately be
                           challenged on appeal from a final judgment generally precludes writ relief.
                           Id. at 225, 88 P.3d at 841. Having considered the petition, we are not
                           persuaded that our extraordinary intervention is warranted. Accordingly,
                           we
                                       ORDER the petition DENIED.2
