appointment of the receiver must submit the claim to the receiver. The date
specified must be at least 90 days after the later of notice under paragraph
(a) of subsection 1 or last publication under paragraph (b) of subsection 1.
The court may extend the period for submitting the claim. Unless the court
orders otherwise, a claim that is not submitted timely is not entitled to a distribution

against the owner is effective against the receiver only if the assignee gives
timely notice of the assignment to the receiver in a signed record.

approving a receivers final report, the receiver may file with the court an
objection to a claim of a creditor, stating the basis for the objection. The

than NRS 32.100 to 32.370 , inclusive.
6. If the court concludes that
receivership property is likely to be insufficient to satisfy claims of each
creditor holding a perfected lien on the property, the court may order that:

subsection 1 of the appointment to all creditors of the owner, but only such
creditors as the court directs; and
(b) Unsecured creditors need not submit claims
under this section.

creditor with an allowed unsecured claim must be made as the court directs
according to law of this State other than NRS
