The Nevada McCrea (Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act) is a law that determines which state has jurisdiction over child custody proceedings. It also outlines the procedures to be followed when a court in one state seeks to enforce a child custody order issued by a court in another state. The Nevada McCrea includes two types of jurisdiction: original jurisdiction (the state that can enter the initial child custody order) and continuing exclusive jurisdiction (the state that has jurisdiction to modify an existing custody order). The law also provides for the recognition and enforcement of out-of-state custody orders. The Nevada McCrea is intended to provide uniformity, stability, and predictability in the resolution of child custody disputes. It is also designed to protect the best interests of the children involved and to encourage cooperative parenting.
