A Nevada Statement of Points on Appeal is a document filed by an appealing party with the Nevada Supreme Court or Nevada Court of Appeals. It is used to indicate the legal issues that the appealing party believes the court should consider when deciding the appeal. It contains a concise summary of the legal argument, including the facts and authorities that the party believes support their position. There are two types of Nevada Statements of Points on Appeal: a direct appeal and an application for extraordinary relief. A direct appeal is used when a party is appealing a lower court's decision, while an application for extraordinary relief is used when a party is seeking review of a lower court's ruling without filing an appeal.
