Nev. Justice. Ct. R. Civ. P. 63

As amended through October 9, 2024
Rule 63 - Inability of a Justice of the Peace to Proceed

If a justice of the peace conducting a hearing or trial is unable to proceed, any other justice may proceed upon certifying familiarity with the record and determining that the case may be completed without prejudice to the parties. In a hearing or a nonjury trial, the successor justice must, at a party's request, recall any witness whose testimony is material and disputed and who is available to testify again without undue burden. The successor justice may also recall any other witness. But if such successor justice cannot perform those duties because the successor justice did not preside at the trial or for any other reason, the successor justice may, in that justice's discretion, grant a new trial.
