1. The prosecuting attorney may apply for, and a court may issue without notice or hearing, a temporary restraining order to preserve property which would be subject to criminal forfeiture pursuant to NRS 179.1219 if:

(a) An indictment or information alleging a technological crime has been filed in a criminal proceeding and the extent of criminally forfeitable property is included therein or the court believes there is probable cause for such an inclusion;

(b) The property is in the possession or control of the party against whom the order will be entered; and

(c) The court determines that the nature of the property is such that it can be concealed, disposed of or placed beyond the jurisdiction of the court before a hearing on the matter.

2. A temporary restraining order which is issued without notice may be issued for not more than 10 days and may be extended only for good cause or by consent. The court shall provide notice and hold a hearing on the matter before the order expires.
