Nevada Supreme Court

Luxx Lighting, Inc. v. Dist. Ct. (Fohse, Inc.)

October 11, 2022

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court denied a petition for a writ of prohibition challenging the denial of a motion for judgment on the pleadings. It held that a motion for judgment on the pleadings cannot be used to raise lack of personal jurisdiction because that defense is not among the defenses authorized for assertion after the pleadings close. The court also concluded that extraordinary review was unnecessary because the petitioner could pursue other means of contesting personal jurisdiction.
