Nevada eviction at a glance
| Court | Justice Court for the township |
|---|
Nevada evictions are heard in the justice Court for the township. Before filing for unpaid rent, the landlord must give the notice required by NRS 40.2512, 40.253.
Step by step
- Notice for unpaid rent. A 7-judicial-day notice to pay rent or quit (weekends and court holidays excluded). (NRS 40.2512, 40.253)
- File in court. If the tenant doesn't pay or move out, file the eviction case in the justice Court for the township. Ask the clerk for current filing and service fees. (Civil Law Self-Help Center (Clark County))
- Hearing, judgment and removal. After the tenant is served, the court sets a hearing. If the landlord wins, removal happens only through the court's order or writ, carried out by a law enforcement officer. Exact timelines are in the court's self-help materials.
