A Nevada Peremptory Challenge of Judge is a legal procedure used to challenge the impartiality of a judge in a court case. It is a motion for the disqualification of a judge based on the assertion that the judge cannot be impartial and objective in the case. This challenge must be made by the party filing the challenge and must be based on facts that can be proven. The challenge may be made on the grounds of bias, prejudice, or any other factor that could affect the impartiality of the judge. There are two types of Nevada Peremptory Challenge of Judge: a statutory challenge and a non-statutory challenge. A statutory challenge is based on the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) and is used to challenge a judge’s disqualification based on certain statutory criteria, such as bias or prejudice. A non-statutory challenge is used to challenge a judge’s disqualification based on other factors, such as a close relationship between the judge and a party to the case.
