Chapter 123 - Rights of Husband and Wife
NRS 123.160 - Effect of failure to record inventory.
1. When a married person is a resident of this state, the failure to file for record an inventory of such person’s separate property in the office of the recorder of the county of residence, or the omission from the inventory, filed for record in such office, of any part of such property, except as to real property situate in another county, is prima facie evidence, as between such married person and purchasers in good faith and for a valuable consideration from the other spouse, that the property of which no inventory has been so filed, or which has been omitted from the inventory, is not the separate property of such person. As to any real property situate in another county, the failure to file for record an inventory thereof in the office of the recorder of the county where the same is situate, or the omission from the inventory, filed for record in such office, of any part of such real property, is prima facie evidence, as between the married person and such purchasers as aforesaid, that such real property of which no inventory has been so filed, or which has been omitted from the inventory, is not such person’s separate property.
2. When a married person is not a resident of this state, the failure to file for record an inventory of such person’s separate property in the office of the recorder of the county where any portion of such property is situate, located or used, or the omission from the inventory, filed in such office, of any part of such property, is, as to all such property situate, located or used in that county, of which no inventory has been so filed, or which has been omitted from the inventory, prima facie evidence, as between the married person and such purchasers as aforesaid, that the same is not such person’s separate property.
3. The provisions of NRS 123.140, 123.150 and this section do not preclude the introduction of other evidence to show the separate or community character of the property of the spouses.
