§ 268.668. Order of district court staying proceeding for annexation or detachment; annulment of annexation
At any stage of an annexation or detachment proceeding, or within 90 days from the
date of its completion as provided in NRS 268.658 or 268.664 , any person or city claiming to be adversely affected by such proceeding may apply
to the district court having jurisdiction of the territory proposed to be annexed
for an order staying such proceeding or annulling such completed action. The court may accord such application precedence over any civil business not involving
the public interest. In hearing and deciding on such application, the court shall consider any evidence
or statements introduced at any administrative or legislative hearing and any evidence
which it finds to have been arbitrarily or capriciously excluded. If the court finds that any of the steps required by NRS 268.610 to 268.671 , inclusive, have not been duly taken or that any officer or body has abused its discretion
in taking any action, the court shall make such temporary or final order in the premises
as the ends of justice may require.
