SB 210 Nevada Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to fees collected by constables and sheriffs for certain services. (BDR 20-540)

SB 210 increases fees that Nevada sheriffs and constables charge for court-related services. Key changes include raising summons fees from $17 to $26, mileage fees from $2 to $3 per mile, and eviction-related fees (like summary evictions) from $21 to $26. The bill also sets a new maximum of $30 per mile for travel costs when papers cannot be served despite reasonable effort. These changes directly affect individuals using court services, such as defendants in lawsuits, tenants facing eviction, and people requiring subpoenas, by increasing their costs for these official processes.
