Nevada Eviction record sealing

Eviction record sealing in Nevada

Nevada automatically seals a summary eviction court file when the case is dismissed, 10 judicial days after the court denies the eviction, or 31 days after the tenant files an answering affidavit if the landlord never files a complaint within 30 days. A court can also seal the file on a stipulation by both sides or on the tenant's motion in the interests of justice. Once sealed, the proceedings are treated as never having occurred. Statute text: "the eviction case court file is sealed automatically and not open to inspection: (a) Upon the entry of a court order which dismisses the action for summary eviction; (b) Ten judicial days after the entry of a court order which denies the action for summary eviction" (NRS 40.2545(2)-(4)).
