Nevada Supreme Court

Clark Cnty. Dep'T. of Fam. Serv. v. Dist. Ct. (sharp)

March 6, 2025141 Nev. Adv. Op. No. 10

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court held that NRS 432B.290(4) creates only a limited privilege for reporter identities that applies when DFS reasonably believes disclosure would cause specific, material harm, and because DFS made no such determination, the district court did not exceed its jurisdiction in ordering the disclosure of reporter identities; the petition for writ was denied.
