§ NRS § 295.105Certification of sufficiency of petition; review of certification

Certification of sufficiency of petition; review of
certification.

1.  Within 20 days after the petition is
submitted to the county clerk pursuant to NRS
295.095, the county clerk shall complete a certificate as to its
sufficiency.

2.  If a petition is certified sufficient,
or if a petition is certified insufficient and the petitioners’ committee does
not elect to request board review under subsection 3 within the time required,
the county clerk shall promptly present his or her certificate to the board and
the certificate is a final determination as to the sufficiency of the petition.

3.  If a petition has been certified
insufficient, the committee may, within 2 days after receiving a copy of the
certificate, file a request that it be reviewed by the board. The board shall
review the certificate at its next meeting following the filing of the request
and approve or disapprove it, and the determination of the board is a final determination
as to the sufficiency of the petition.

4.  A final determination as to the
sufficiency of a petition is subject to judicial review. If the final
determination is challenged by filing a complaint in district court, the court
shall set the matter for hearing not later than 3 days after the complaint is
filed and shall give priority to such a complaint over all other matters
pending with the court, except for criminal proceedings. A final determination
of insufficiency, even if sustained upon judicial review, does not prejudice
the filing of a new petition for the same purpose.
