About Nevada Exhibit Requirements
Nevada's statewide electronic filing rules (NEFCR) set minimum standards that every court using an electronic filing system must follow, and those systems are implemented by the AOC or by individual courts. In Clark County's Eighth Judicial District Court, EDCR 2.67 requires trial counsel to meet and exchange exhibits before calendar call or the final pretrial conference. Washoe County cases are heard in the Second Judicial District Court, whose local rules are the Washoe District Court Rules (WDCR). Before filing in the Nevada Supreme Court, check the clerk's current e-filing instructions on nvcourts.gov.

Nevada Exhibit FAQs
How do I e-file exhibits in Nevada courts?
The e-filing system depends on the Nevada court; confirm with the clerk of your court. Nevada e-filing portals differ by court, so confirm the electronic filing system with your district court clerk before filing. You must register with the court's electronic filing system before e-filing (NEFCR 5(a)). Check the court's current e-filing instructions for accepted exhibit formats and file-size limits before filing. In Clark County's Eighth Judicial District Court, EDCR 2.02 requires all civil-action filings to be filed electronically under EDCR Part VIII.
What are Nevada's exhibit disclosure deadlines?
Unless the court orders otherwise, Nevada requires pretrial disclosures at least 30 days before trial under NRCP 16.1(a)(3)(B)(i). Within 14 days after pretrial disclosures are made, unless the court sets a different time, a party may serve and file objections to the admissibility of the disclosed exhibits. The court may order a different time for these pretrial disclosures (NRCP 16.1(a)(3)(B)). Missing the pretrial disclosure deadline can lead the court to limit or exclude evidence — confirm the consequences in the assigned judge's trial order.
What exhibit marking system does Nevada require?
Nevada has no statewide P-1/D-1 rule; trial exhibit numbering is set by district local rules and the assigned department's guidelines, so confirm with the clerk. Conventions differ between Nevada judicial districts and departments, so confirm the assigned judge's exhibit guidelines. Identify each trial exhibit in your pretrial disclosures, which NRCP 16.1(a)(3) requires at least 30 days before trial unless the court orders otherwise.
What is Clark County Business Court and when should I use it?
Clark County's Eighth Judicial District Court assigns business matters, as defined in EDCR 1.61, to designated business court judges. Under EDCR 1.61, business matters include cases decided under NRS Chapters 78 through 92A, Uniform Commercial Code claims, business torts, purchases or sales of a business's stock or assets or of commercial real estate, and business franchise relationships. Under a pilot program, the Eighth Judicial District Court assigns business court cases to dedicated business court judges, and a mere need for enhanced case management is no longer a basis for keeping a case in business court. Under EDCR 1.61(c)(2), a plaintiff requests business-matter assignment in the caption of the initial complaint, and another party may request it in the caption of its initial appearance or response.
Are there special exhibit considerations for gaming industry cases in Nevada?
Yes. Nevada's gaming industry generates significant litigation, particularly in Washoe County (Reno) and Clark County (Las Vegas). Gaming cases may involve exhibits such as gaming licenses, regulatory compliance documents, and casino financial records. Exhibits containing information furnished to or prepared by the Gaming Control Board or Commission may be confidential under NRS 463.120. In gaming cases, review NRS 463.120, which makes certain Gaming Control Board and Commission information confidential, in addition to the NRCP.
