Narrative Opinion Summary

The petitioner sought extraordinary writ relief, challenging the lower court's decisions.

Ultimately, the Nevada Supreme Court, sitting en banc, denied the petitions in both consolidated cases, signaling the conclusion of the matter. A remittitur was issued, closing the case.
