                      ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS
                            This is an original petition for a writ of mandamus challenging
                district court orders granting partial summary judgment and a motion to
                include a settled codefendant on the verdict form in a medical malpractice
                action. Having considered the petition, we are not persuaded that
                petitioner has met her burden to demonstrate that our extraordinary
                discretionary intervention is warranted. NRS 34.160; Piroozi v. Eighth
                Judicial Dist. Court, 131 Nev., Adv. Op. 100, P.3d , (2015)
                (concluding that under NRS 41A.045, a district court is 'required to
                permit [a defendant] the opportunity to argue the comparative fault of the
                settled defendants and include those defendants' names and an
                assignment of their percentage of fault on the jury verdict forms"); Pan v.
