Full text of Nevada Nevada Revised Statutes § 144.050 — Claims against personal representative, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 144.050. Claims against personal representative
The naming of a person as personal representative in a will does not operate as a
discharge of any just receivable or demand which was due the testator from that person,
but the receivable or demand must be included in the inventory and the person named
as personal representative is liable for it when it becomes due, unless it is proved
that the personal representative had not, then or thereafter, any means with which
to pay the receivable or demand, or such part as may remain unpaid, and that the inability
did not arise from any fraud committed by the personal representative, but any commissions
allowed must be applied toward payment of the receivable or demand.
