                      ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
                            This original petition for a writ of mandamus challenges a
                district court order denying a motion for summary judgment in a medical
                malpractice action. Having considered the petition and supporting
                documents, we are not persuaded that our intervention is warranted at
                this time, as an adequate remedy exists in the form of an appeal from any
                adverse final judgment. NRS 34.160; Int'l Game Tech., Inc. v. Second

                Eighth Judicial Dist. Court, 113 Nev. 1343, 1345, 950 P.2d 280, 281 (1997)
                (noting that this court generally will not consider writ petitions
                challenging orders denying motions to dismiss or for summary judgment).
                Accordingly, we
                            ORDER the petition DENIED.
