Flangas v. Perfekt Marketing, LLC

The Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the district court determining that Respondent judgment creditor timely domesticated a foreign judgment in Nevada and that Respondent's accomplishment of actual service of the domestication notice on a later date did not affect the judgment's enforceability, holding that there was no error.

Respondent domesticated the foreign judgment within the rendering state's statute of limitations but did not perfect service of the domestication notice on Appellant judgment debtor under the rendering state's limitations period for judgment enforcement had passed. The district court denied Appellant's motion to set aside the judgment. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) under the Uniform Enforcement of Foreign Judgment Act, a foreign judgment is enforceable in Nevada if the judgment domesticates the judgment according to the provisions of the Act within the rendering state's limitations period and complies with the statutory notice provisions of the Act; and (2) enforcement of the foreign judgment did not violate due process.
