                       ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR EXTRAORDINARY WRIT RELIEF

                                   This is an emergency, pro se, original petition for extraordinary
                      writ relief challenging the district court's alleged refusal to enter written
                      orders on its oral decisions after August 24 and December 2, 2021,
                      hearings.'
                                   We have reviewed the documents submitted in this matter, and
                      we decline to exercise original jurisdiction at this time. NRS 34.020; NRS

                      222, 228, 88 P.3d 840, 844 (2004) (observing that the party seeking writ
                      relief bears the burden of showing such relief is warranted); Smith v. Eighth

Judicial Dist. Court, 107 Nev. 674, 677, 818 P.2d 849, 851 (1991)
(recognizing that writ relief is an extraordinary remedy and that this court
has sole discretion in determining whether to entertain a writ petition).
Petitioner has not demonstrated need for a written order indicating that an
earlier no contact order still controls so as to warrant our intervention, and
the district court orally recognized petitioner's need for a written order on
the revocation motion heard in December. This court is confident that the
district court will resolve all pending matters, by written order as
appropriate, as expeditiously as the court's calendar permits. State, Div.

filed). Accordingly, we
