Nevada Eighth Judicial District Court Judge Linda Bell issued Administrative Order 20-07 that is effective immediately. Matters on the Probate Commissioner’s calendar that are opposed or require a hearing will be continued for at least 30 days and will be rescheduled as the court calendar allows. Matters that can be approved without a hearing will be on the approved list if no objection has been electronically filed and served by 9:30 am on the day before the hearing.
The approved list may be accessed on the Probate section of the District Court’s website at: http://www.clarkcountycourts.us/departments/probate/
Once on the website, select the weekly probate calendar list.
Probate matters on the Probate Judges’ calendars will be decided on the papers, heard by video or telephonic means, or continued at the discretion of the assigned Judge.
If a party electronically files an election to proceed before the District Judge pursuant to EDCR 4.08, any petitions on file will be reset by the assigned Judge.
Scheduling orders in contested matters may be requested by stipulation of the parties submitted to chambers electronically with an order approving the proposed schedule. The assigned Probate Judge or Probate Commissioner will set the evidentiary hearing or other trial in the ordinary course.
Sale confirmations currently set will be confirmed based on the papers filed with the court and without the necessity of placing the sale for public bid, unless a notice of intent to overbid is electronically filed and served 72 hours before the date of the sale confirmation hearing. Any petition to confirm a sale filed after issuance of this Administrative Order shall contain, in addition to the statutory requirements, language advising that notice of intent to overbid must be electronically filed and served 72 hours before the scheduled hearing. After receiving an electronically filed notice of intent to overbid, the court will set a remote hearing through video or telephonic means. Otherwise, the sale will be approved in accordance with the notice. All orders on approved matters will be electronically filed by the court and electronically served.
This order shall be reviewed no later than every 30 days and shall continue until modified or rescinded by a subsequent order.
