You must reply to each paragraph/allegation in the complaint by admitting it, denying it, or denying it because you don’t have enough knowledge or information to be able to admit it. You only have 20 days from the day you were served with the Summons and complaint to file and serve your Answer. If you don’t file an Answer in the court and serve a copy to the plaintiff’s attorney (or the plaintiff, if he’s unrepresented) within 20 days of the day you were served, then the plaintiff may obtain a default judgment against you.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WARNING:&lt;/strong&gt; The filing of an Answer affects your legal rights.

For certified copies of marriage certificates, you must write to the County Recorder in the county where the license was purchased. For divorce records, you must write to the County Clerk in the county where the divorce was granted. Our Office can search for and verify events occurring after 1968 if you submit a request containing the full name(s) of the person whose record you are searching for, the approximate date of the event and the city where you believe the event occurred. The fee for verification of a record is $10.00 for each name searched. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those interested in the topic, the &lt;a href="http://www.nvbar.org/"&gt;State Bar of Nevada&lt;/a&gt;'s series of pamphlets includes one on &lt;a href="http://www.nvbar.org/pdf/pamphlets/divorcepamphlet.pdf"&gt;divorce&lt;/a&gt;

The legislature's version conforms to the print edition of the NRS, which as of today's writing is the 2007 Reprint with 2008 Revision 2 replacement pages (notated &lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;(2008) R1&lt;/span&gt; in the footer of each replacement page).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Court rules are not searchable, but they are indexed in the &lt;a href="http://www.leg.state.nv.us/law1.cfm"&gt;Nevada Revised Statutes&lt;/a&gt;. The &lt;a href="http://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRSindex/"&gt;index&lt;/a&gt; is quite voluminous, but here's a trick to navigate it. To find the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure, select a section of the alphabet, such as "&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;" for civil procedure and when the page loads, click on &lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;Edit  Find&lt;/span&gt;, type a text string such as &lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;CIVIL PROCEDURE&lt;/span&gt; in all capital letters in the box, and click on the "&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;Match Case&lt;/span&gt;" check box (in Firefox) or click on &lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;Edit  Find&lt;/span&gt; and then click on the "&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;Options&lt;/span&gt;" drop down list (in Internet Explorer) to jump to that index term. In this case, the Rules of Civil Procedure are not on the C index page, but there is a "see" entry with a link to the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;CIVIL PROCEDURE, NEVADA RULES OF (See &lt;a href="http://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRSIndex/N.html#NRSNEVADARULESOFCIVILPROCEDURE"&gt;NEVADA RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Since the Court Rules on the legislature's page are only as current as the print NRS, researchers are advised to check the Court's &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="FONT-FAMILY: arial" href="http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/supremecourt"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; for &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="FONT-FAMILY: arial" href="http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/viewdocumentsandforms/Supreme-Court-Files/Rules/"&gt;administrative orders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; amending the rules. In the NRCP example, there four orders (ADKTs 276 &lt;a href="http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/viewdocumentsandforms/func-startdown/678/"&gt;order&lt;/a&gt; dated 2/6/09; 426 &lt;a href="http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/viewdocumentsandforms/func-startdown/679/"&gt;order&lt;/a&gt; dated 2/6/09; 405 &lt;a href="http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/viewdocumentsandforms/func-startdown/1474/"&gt;order&lt;/a&gt; dated 4/29/09 and 388 &lt;a href="http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/viewdocumentsandforms/func-startdown/2898/"&gt;order&lt;/a&gt; dated 11/17/09) which have not yet been incorporated in the legislature's online version.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6170069578076143653-7754116935153584275?l=nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com/feeds/7754116935153584275/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com/2010/01/nevada-court-rules.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6170069578076143653/posts/default/7754116935153584275'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6170069578076143653/posts/default/7754116935153584275'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com/2010/01/nevada-court-rules.html' title='Nevada Court Rules'/><author><name>Paula Doty</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16808614326846343022</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TNegH6Oh31U/TbY4u3w0MeI/AAAAAAAAACw/ih0dGuUoCFY/s220/paula%2Bblog%2Bphoto.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6170069578076143653.post-3960441192609666340</id><published>2010-01-27T12:19:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-27T12:32:37.615-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Self-Help'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Motion to Show Cause'/><title type='text'>Motion to Show Cause</title><content type='html'>We've had an upswing in requests for sample motions to show cause.

West debuts WestlawNext on &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/25/technology/25westlaw.html"&gt;February 1st&lt;/a&gt; and New Lexis will be released later this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attorney and legal blogger &lt;a href="http://www.legaline.com/"&gt;Robert Ambrogi&lt;/a&gt; had the opportunity to use WestlawNext and &lt;a href="http://www.legaline.com/2010/01/first-look-at-westlawnext.html"&gt;says&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;This is no mere cosmetic redesign. WestlawNext completely changes the search interface and the search engine behind it. In fact, the change is so dramatic that West has given its new search engine its own name: WestSearch. This new search engine does not just look at the terms you enter, a West executive said. Rather, it tries to identify the issue of law based on the terms you searched.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Less is known at this point about New Lexis.  The February ABA Journal has an &lt;a href="http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/exclusive_inside_the_new_westlaw_lexis_bloomberg_platforms/"&gt;article&lt;/a&gt; on both Westlaw and Lexis and includes the following regarding New Lexis:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;“Our new search engine is radically different,” says Marty Kilmer, vice president for new product strategy at LexisNexis. “Under the old system you had to know what you wanted to search. You had to drill down to find the right databases.”&lt;br /&gt;....&lt;br /&gt;An early preview of the New Lexis opens with a simple query box. Boolean search terms—like “Roe and Wade” or “Scalia or Roberts”—are a thing of the past. Users can type a simple query with natural language, a la Google or Yahoo. Queries can be filtered by jurisdiction, type of content or other restrictions. The search engine, like Google, has artificial intelligence that will help pull more relevant results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6170069578076143653-464070430800603076?l=nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com/feeds/464070430800603076/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com/2010/01/changes-coming-to-westlaw-and-lexis.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6170069578076143653/posts/default/464070430800603076'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6170069578076143653/posts/default/464070430800603076'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nvsctlawlib.blogspot.com/2010/01/changes-coming-to-westlaw-and-lexis.html' title='Changes coming to Westlaw and Lexis'/><author><name>Paula Doty</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16808614326846343022</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TNegH6Oh31U/TbY4u3w0MeI/AAAAAAAAACw/ih0dGuUoCFY/s220/paula%2Bblog%2Bphoto.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6170069578076143653.post-5456081312539022943</id><published>2009-10-27T10:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-22T09:05:19.777-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Self-Help'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foreclosure'/><title type='text'>Nevada Rental Foreclosure</title><content type='html'>If you are a renter who's dwelling unit is being foreclosed upon, the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada has a useful summary of Nevada law on rental foreclosures.
