Nevada Supreme Court

Highroller Transp. v. Nev. Transp. Auth.

November 30, 2023

Summary

The court affirmed the district court's order denying Highroller's federal-preemption challenge to fines imposed by the Nevada Transportation Authority. It held that arguments generally must be raised before the NTA hearing officer, that Highroller's conclusory preemption assertion did not establish a jurisdictional defect, and that Highroller's stipulations waiving formal findings barred its later challenge. The court also explained that the merits could not properly be resolved without a developed agency record, but affirmed on waiver and failure-to-establish-jurisdiction grounds.
