Nevada Unlawful Detained is a legal process used to evict tenants from a rental property in the state of Nevada. It is also known as a forcible entry and detained action or an eviction lawsuit. Unlawful Detained is the legal process by which a landlord can regain possession of their rental property, and is available for any type of tenancy. There are two types of Nevada Unlawful Detained: summary proceedings and regular proceedings. Summary proceedings are expedited court proceedings that are faster and less expensive, but the tenant has less legal protection. Regular proceedings involve a tenant filing an answer to the complaint, and the court will decide the outcome based on the facts presented. In either case, the tenant must be served with a summons and complaint, and given a certain amount of time to respond. If the tenant does not respond, the landlord can then obtain a writ of possession from the court, allowing them to physically remove the tenant from the property.
