§ 200.50957. Person named on account held in joint tenancy may be prosecuted for exploitation
1. The mere fact that an account of an older person or a vulnerable person is held
in joint tenancy pursuant to NRS 100.085 does not, in and of itself, convey to all persons named on the account legal ownership
of the account and the deposits and proceeds of the account in a manner that would
preclude such a person from committing or being prosecuted for exploitation involving
the control or conversion of any deposits or proceeds of the account if the facts
and circumstances demonstrate that exploitation has occurred, regardless of whether
the intent to commit exploitation arose before, during or after the creation of the
account. 2. Nothing in this section shall be construed to relieve the State of its burden of
proving beyond a reasonable doubt each element of the crime of exploitation.
