Case Synopsis
The Nevada Supreme Court reversed the district court’s order granting respondent NRCP 60(b)(1) and (6) relief from a prior judgment and remanded for proceedings consistent with the reversal. The Court held that (1) an NRCP 60(b)(1) motion is untimely when 14 months have elapsed since the judgment was entered and (2) that relief under NRCP 60(b)(6) is unjustified where it would have been available under NRCP 60(B)(1) if timely.
