Case Synopsis
The Nevada Constitution, Article 19, § 2(3), prohibits the Legislature from amending or repealing a voter initiative statute for the first three years after it takes effect. The Court held that this three year moratorium also applies to voter-initiated municipal ordinances. The Court, therefore, upheld the lower court’s denial of declaratory relief because the legislature passed/reenacted the challenged ordinance after the moratorium expired.
