Ferrell St. Tr. v. U.S. Bank, N.A.

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court affirmed dismissal of the quiet-title action. It held that the district court acted within its discretion in denying discovery into a decade-old, potentially nonexistent communication that might have accelerated the loan, because the requested discovery sought to undermine an earlier judgment concerning the same deed of trust. The court expressly left unresolved whether acceleration could trigger the statutory period or whether a pre-default communication could accelerate the loan.
