Nevada Supreme Court

State v. Degraffenreid, Iii (james) (criminal)

November 13, 2025141 Nev. Adv. Op. No. 56

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court held that Clark County was a proper venue for prosecuting charges involving false or forged electoral certificates mailed to and delivered at a federal courthouse there. The offenses were not complete when the certificates were deposited for mailing in Douglas County because the charged acts of offering or uttering necessarily involved delivery to a recipient. The court reversed the dismissal of the indictment and remanded for further proceedings.
