Nevada Supreme Court

State, Dep'T of Corr. v. Dist Ct. (Haines)

November 21, 2022

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court denied NDOC's petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to overturn the district court's order granting judicial review and remanding an overtime dispute to the agency. The court concluded that the district court could independently decide the legal question concerning the statutory definition of compensable overtime, and that eventual appellate review, development of the agency record, and judicial-economy considerations counseled against extraordinary intervention.
