1. The award being filed in the clerks
office of the district court, as provided in NRS
614.030 , it shall go into practical operation and judgment shall be entered
thereon accordingly at the expiration of 10 days from such filing, unless
within such 10 days either party shall file exceptions thereto for matter of
law apparent on the record, in which case the award shall go into practical
operation and judgment shall be entered accordingly when such exceptions shall
have been finally disposed of either by the district court or on appeal
therefrom.
2. At the expiration of 10 days from the
decision of the district court upon exception taken to the award as stated in
subsection 1, judgment shall be entered in accordance with the decision, unless
during the 10 days either party shall appeal therefrom to the appellate court
of competent jurisdiction pursuant to the rules fixed by the Supreme Court of
the State of Nevada pursuant to Section
4 of Article 6 of the Nevada Constitution. In such case only such portion
of the record shall be transmitted to the appellate court of competent
jurisdiction as is necessary to a proper understanding and consideration of the
questions of law presented by the exceptions and to be decided.

court of competent jurisdiction upon the questions shall be final, and, being
certified by the clerk thereof to the district court, judgment pursuant thereto
shall thereupon be entered by the district court.
4. If exceptions to an award are finally
sustained, judgment shall be entered setting aside the award, but in such case
the parties may agree upon a judgment to be entered disposing of the subject
matter of the controversy, which judgment when entered shall have the same
force and effect as judgment entered upon an award.
