AB 283 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions governing certain actions and proceedings relating to real property. (BDR 3-819)

AB 283 revises Nevada's summary eviction procedures for residential tenants (non-commercial properties) who miss rent payments or violate lease terms. It requires landlords to provide a written notice giving tenants 7 judicial days to pay rent or leave, after which landlords must file a court complaint within 30 days. Tenants then have 7 days to respond to court papers; if they don’t, the court can order eviction without a hearing. The bill also mandates courts to automatically seal eviction records for cases filed under these new procedures.
