The
remedies provided by law for the enforcement of actions based upon alleged
alienation of affections and breach of contract to marry before March 5, 1943,
and for alleged criminal conversation before July 1, 1979, having been
subjected to grave abuses, caused extreme annoyance, embarrassment, humiliation
and pecuniary damage to many persons wholly innocent and free of any
wrongdoing, who were merely the victims of circumstances, and having been
exercised by unscrupulous persons for their unjust enrichment, and having
furnished vehicles for the commission or attempted commission of crime and in
many cases having resulted in the perpetration of frauds, it is hereby declared
as the public policy of the State that the best interests of the people of this
state will be served by the abolition thereof. Consequently, in the public
interest, the necessity for the enactment of NRS
41.370 to 41.420 , inclusive, is
hereby declared as a matter of legislative determination.
