| 01/05/2001 | Order/Dispositional | Filed Order Denying Petition. Order Denying Petition for Writ of Mandamus or Prohibition, Granting Motion to Treat Petition as Opening Brief, and Granting Motion to Expedite Appeal. This is an original petition for a writ of mandamus or in the alternative a writ of prohibition in the district court (Docket No. 37186). Petitioners have also filed a timely appeal in this matter (Docket No. 37189). We have considered the writ petition and the motion to summarily deny the petition, and we are not satisfied that our intervention by way of extraordinary relief is warranted. We conclude that petitioners/appellants have an adequate and speedy remedy in the form of the appeal that was filed in this matter on December 22, 2000. " . . . we deny the petition." We grant petitioners/ appellants' motion to treat the petition as the opening brief in the appeal. We direct the clerk of this court to transfer the writ petition and appendix in Docket No. 37186 to the appeal in Docket No. 37189. We grant the motion to expedite this matter to the extent this court's docket will allow. We suspend the settlement conference requirements under NRAP 16 and the preparation and transmission of the record under NRAP 11. Respondents shall file an answering brief on or before january 19, 2001. Petitioners/appellants shall file any reply brief on or before January 26, 2001, explaining why the constitutional issues raised in the opening brief are ripe for this court's consideration. In light of this expedited briefing schedule, we will not grant any requests for an extension of time absent extreme and unforeseeable circumstances. We direct the clerk of this court to schedule this matter for argument on this court's en banc calendar on February 7, 2001, at 1:30 p.m. Argument shall be limited to one hour. fn1[We deny as moot petitioners/appellants' January 4, 2001, motion to consolidate the petition, Docket No. 37186, and the appeal, Docket No. 37189.
