Case Synopsis

In this case, the City of North Las Vegas’s complaint against the Appellee was not time-barred, did not violate the Appellee’s due process rights, and was not void ab initio. Therefore, the Court denied the Appellee’s petition for writ relief.

The 2019 amendment of NRS 11.202 extending the repose period from six-years to ten years applies retroactively to actions where substantial completion of the construction project occurred before October 1, 2019. The Legislature intended for the amendment to apply retroactively because the six-year repose period prejudiced Nevadans pursuing construction defect claims.
