Nevada § 40.360 - Judgment; damages; execution and enforcement

§ 40.360. Judgment; damages; execution and enforcement

1. Judgment. If, upon the trial, the verdict of the jury, or, if the case be tried without a

jury, the finding of the court, be in favor of the plaintiff and against the defendant,

judgment shall be entered for the restitution of the premises; and, if the proceeding

be for unlawful detainer after neglect or failure to perform any condition or covenant

of the lease or agreement under which the property is held, or after default in the

payment of rent, the judgment shall also declare the forfeiture of such lease or agreement. 2. Damages. The jury or the court, if the proceeding be tried without a jury, shall also assess

the damages occasioned to the plaintiff by any forcible entry, or by any forcible

or unlawful detainer, and any amount found due the plaintiff by reason of waste of

the premises by the defendant during the tenancy, alleged in the complaint and proved

on the trial, and find the amount of any rent due, if the alleged unlawful detainer

be after default in the payment of rent; and the judgment shall be rendered against

the defendant guilty of the forcible entry, or forcible or unlawful detainer, for

the rent and for three times the amount of the damages thus assessed. 3. Execution and enforcement. When the proceeding is for an unlawful detainer after default in the payment of

the rent, and the lease or agreement under which the rent is payable has not by its

terms expired, execution upon the judgment shall not be issued until the expiration

of 5 days after the entry of the judgment, within which time the tenant, or any subtenant,

or any mortgagee of the term, or other party interested in its continuance, may pay

into court for the landlord the amount of the judgment and costs, and thereupon the

judgment shall be satisfied and the tenant be restored to the tenant’s estate; but,

if payment, as herein provided, be not made within the 5 days, the judgment may be

enforced for its full amount and for the possession of the premises. In all other cases the judgment may be enforced immediately.
