2015 Nevada Revised Statutes
Chapter 147 - Presentation and Payment of Claims
NRS 147.050 - Claims of personal representative.
1. If a personal representative is a creditor of the decedent, the claim must be filed with the clerk, who must present it for allowance or rejection to the court. Its allowance by the court is sufficient evidence of its correctness, and it must be paid as other claims in due course of administration.
2. If the court rejects the claim, action thereon may be brought by the personal representative as claimant against the estate, and summons must be served upon the court, which shall appoint an attorney, at the expense of the estate, to defend the action. If the claimant fails to recover, the claimant must pay all costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees for the estate, to be fixed by the court.
