Court-wide rules

Applies court-wide

Nevada Superior Court publishes its filing requirements at the court level rather than per judge, so these 619 rules are what govern this courtroom.

Filing Requirements

All 329
  • Applies to
    Complaint and cross complaint

    The complaint and cross-complaint must be filed and served with the Case Management Conference notice and information materials, and counsel must also serve the Nevada County Superior Court ADR information sheet and attached stipulation form.

  • Applies to
    Termination of dependency memo and mandatory form JV-364

    The termination-of-dependency filing must include a memo and mandatory Judicial Council Form JV-364.

  • Applies to
    FL17 Stipulation for Appointment of Commissioner as Temporary Judge

    Form FL17, Stipulation for Appointment of Commissioner as Temporary Judge, is mandatory.

Service

All 98
  • Applies to
    Case management statement

    The completed Case Management Statement must be served on all parties at least 15 calendar days before the Case Management Conference.

  • The court may waive the temporary restraining order notice requirement if notice is impossible, would frustrate the order’s purpose, or could cause immediate and irreparable harm.

  • Deadline
    10 calendar days
    Applies to
    Status and fccr conference questionnaire

    Each party must serve the FL-20 status and FCCR Conference Questionnaire on the other party at least ten calendar days before the conference.

Filing Timing

All 92
  • Deadline
    15 calendar days

    Each party must file and serve a completed Case Management Statement at least 15 calendar days before the scheduled Case Management Conference.

  • Deadline
    10 court days
    Applies to
    Settlement conference statement

    A request for telephonic appearance by a principal, decision maker, or adjuster must be submitted at least ten court days before the mandatory settlement conference together with the mandatory settlement conference statement.

  • Deadline
    2 court days

    CASA advocate reports must be filed and made available to all counsel a reasonable number of days before the hearing, but no later than two court days before it.

Adjournments

All 26
  • A continuance request on the ex parte application to calendar form must state the reason and requested length and be presented to all counsel first.

  • A request to continue mediation made fewer than 10 days before the scheduled mediation constitutes willful failure to meaningfully participate in mediation unless good cause is shown.

  • Civil settlement-conference, trial-conference, and trial continuance requests must comply with California Rules of Court rule 3.1332; a trial conflict qualifies as good cause only if it arose after the trial date was set and could not reasonably have been avoided, and an unopposed continuance motion must include mutually acceptable future trial dates agreed by all parties.
