Section 118C.220 - Jurisdiction of courts; applicability of judicial doctrines1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the justice court has jurisdiction over any civil action or proceeding concerning the exclusion of a tenant from commercial premises or the summary eviction of a tenant from commercial premises in which no party is seeking damages.2. If a landlord combines an action for summary eviction of a tenant from commercial premises with a claim to recover contractual damages, jurisdiction over the claims rests with the court which has jurisdiction over the amount in controversy.3. The provisions of NRS 40.430 and the doctrines of res judicata and collateral estoppel do not apply to: (a) A claim by a landlord for contractual damages which is brought subsequent to an action by the landlord for the summary eviction of a tenant from commercial premises; or(b) An action by a landlord for the summary eviction of a tenant from commercial premises which is brought subsequent to a claim by the landlord for contractual damages.Added to NRS by 2011, 1488Added to NRS by 2011, 1488
