Dignity Health v. Dist. Ct. (gohari)

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court denied a petition for a writ of mandamus challenging the denial of a motion to dismiss medical-malpractice claims as untimely. It held that the COVID-19 emergency directives applied to the limitations period for claims involving a child's brain damage or birth defect and tolled that period for 122 days. Because the complaint was filed within the resulting extended period, dismissal was not required.
