HOWARD v. EIGHTH JUDICIAL DIST. COURT

No. 13322.

640 P.2d 1320 (1982)

George T. HOWARD; Art Drapery Studios, Inc., and Martin Stern, Jr., A.I.A. Architect, Petitioners, v. The EIGHTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT of the State of Nevada, Respondent.

Supreme Court of Nevada.

February 26, 1982.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Cromer, Barker, Michaelson, Gillock & Rawlings, Dickerson, Miles, Pico & Mitchell, Las Vegas, for petitioners.

Galatz, Earl & Biggar, Las Vegas, for respondent.


OPINION

PER CURIAM:

This original proceeding in prohibition challenges the district court's refusal to grant summary judgment on the ground that respondent court lacks jurisdiction to proceed with plaintiff's common law action. Petitioners contend that the Nevada Industrial Insurance Act (NIIA) provides plaintiff's full and exclusive remedy, and that, therefore, respondent court is without jurisdiction.
