§ 412.056. Designation of Acting Adjutant General by Governor; compensation
1. If the federally recognized Nevada National Guard, or any portion thereof, is called
or ordered to active federal duty by the President, and if such call or order includes
the Adjutant General and Assistant Adjutants General, the Governor may appoint an
Acting Adjutant General who shall assume the responsibilities and powers and perform
all duties required of the Adjutant General, and who must be selected from the federally
recognized officers not called or ordered to active duty and who meet the qualifications
established for the appointment of an Adjutant General. 2. If, on the occurrence of a vacancy in the office of Adjutant General, there is
no qualified and appointed Assistant Adjutant General, the Governor may designate
an Acting Adjutant General who shall assume temporarily the responsibilities and powers
and perform all duties required of the Adjutant General until such time as an Adjutant
General is regularly appointed and qualified. An Acting Adjutant General designated under this provision must have the same qualifications
as are required for the appointment of an Adjutant General. 3. The Acting Adjutant General serving under the terms of this section must be compensated
as determined by the Governor, but the amount must not exceed that authorized for
