Nevada Supreme Court

Dignity Health v. Dist. Ct. (gohari)

June 20, 2024140 Nev. Adv. Op. No. 40

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court held that the COVID‑19 emergency directives tolled the limitations period under NRS 41A.097(5) for 122 days, making the medical‑malpractice complaint timely, and therefore denied the petition for a writ of mandamus. The Court also affirmed that it had jurisdiction to consider the petition and found no abuse of discretion by the district court.
