Computation of amount of judgment; interest
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. In all judgments and decrees, rendered
by any court of justice, for any debt, damages or costs, and in all executions
issued thereon, the amount must be computed, as near as may be, in dollars and
cents, rejecting smaller fractions, and no judgment, or other proceedings, may
be considered erroneous for that omission.
2. When no rate of interest is provided by
contract or otherwise by law, or specified in the judgment, the judgment draws
interest from the time of service of the summons and complaint until satisfied,
except for any amount representing future damages, which draws interest only
from the time of the entry of the judgment until satisfied, at a rate equal to
the prime rate at the largest bank in Nevada as ascertained by the Commissioner
of Financial Institutions on January 1 or July 1, as the case may be,
immediately preceding the date of judgment, plus 2 percent. The rate must be
adjusted accordingly on each January 1 and July 1 thereafter until the judgment
is satisfied.
