Nevada § 174.034 - Sealing of records after discharge

§ 174.034. Sealing of records after discharge

1. If the defendant is discharged and the indictment, information, complaint or citation

is dismissed pursuant to NRS 174.033 , the justice court or municipal court must order sealed all documents, papers and

exhibits in the record of the defendant, minute book entries and entries on dockets,

and other documents relating to the case in the custody of such other agencies and

officers as are named in the order of the court. The court shall order those records sealed without a hearing unless the district

attorney petitions the court, for good cause shown, not to seal the records and requests

a hearing thereon. 2. If the justice court or municipal court orders the record of a defendant sealed,

the defendant must send a copy of the order to each agency or officer named in the

order. Each such agency or officer shall notify the court in writing of its compliance

with the order.
