Westlaw Pop-Up Blocker Fix

If you are having trouble printing Westlaw* documents, odds are the issue is caused by your browser's pop-up blocker. 

For IE, go to Tools | Pop-up Blocker | Pop-up Blocker Settings and type the following into the Address of Website to Allow box:

*.westlaw.com 

then click on Add and then add the three URLs listed below, click on Close and you should be good to go.  

print.westlaw.com
next.westlaw.com
web2.westlaw.com

*Actually this works with any sort of pop-up blocker issue, but we needed to use it for our public access Westlaw computers.

Residency Requirements

While working on another matter, I recently discovered an interesting document on the Legislative Counsel Bureau Research Division's Publications/Fact Sheets page:  Fact Sheet on Residency Requirements in Nevada.  It includes links to relevant NRS citations.  For example, if one wondered how long s/he needed to live in Nevada to be eligible to vote:

Persons are eligible to vote if, before an election, they have continuously resided in the State and the county for 30 days and in the precinct for 10 days (NRS 293.485).

New (Fiscal) Year, New Presumptive Maximum Amounts of Child Support

Back in October of 2010 we blogged about Presumptive Maximum Amounts (PMA) of Child Support.  PMAs are adjusted every year effective July 1, so there is a new document available on the Court's website with the new amounts.

The presumptive maximum amounts for July 1, 2011-June 30, 2012 may be found on the Supreme Court's website under Documents and Forms | Self-Help/Pro Se | Family Division Forms. PMAs back to July 1, 2003 are also available from the court's website.

Since it is now July and the State Commissioner of Financial Institutions has ascertained the rate of interest on judgments (pdf) I have updated my post on judgment interest rates. There is a link to the Prime Interest Rate  in the Financial Institutions Index (left navigation bar) on the Financial Institutions Division page. The Washoe County Court also provides the rates (scroll down).
