Nevada Code § 17.580

Determining amount of money of certain contract claims
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. If an amount contracted to be paid in a
foreign money is measured by a specified amount of a different money, the
amount to be paid is determined on the date of conversion.
2. If an amount contracted to be paid in a
foreign money is to be measured by a different money at the rate of exchange
prevailing on a date before default, that rate of exchange applies only to
payments made within a reasonable time after default, not exceeding 30 days.
Thereafter, conversion is made at the bank-offered spot rate on the date of
conversion.
3. A monetary claim is neither usurious
nor unconscionable because the agreement on which it is based provides that the
amount of the debtors obligation to be paid on the debtors money, when
received by the creditor, must equal a specified amount of the foreign money of
the country of the creditor. If, because of unexcused delay in payment of a
judgment or award, the amount received by the creditor does not equal the
amount of the foreign money specified in the agreement, the court or arbitrator
shall amend the judgment or award accordingly.
