September 01, 2025
Nevada adopted the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act (UIDDA) via NRS §§ 53.170–53.210, providing an efficient, unified process for domesticating out-of-state subpoenas. UIDDA enables attorneys to file a Subpoena with the district court clerk in the county where discovery is sought, allowing quick issuance of a Nevada-compliant subpoena without full court intervention.
A foreign subpoena has no effect in Nevada unless domesticated. UIDDA allows for streamlined enforcement—enabling depositions or document production from non-parties—without requiring a new case or full court appearance. Countrywide Process ensures the subpoena is recognized and served appropriately under the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure.
To properly domesticate a foreign subpoena in Nevada, attorneys or Countrywide Process must submit:
Once processed, the district court issues the Nevada subpoena under the seal of the court.
Note: Removal of burdensome processes—such as acquiring court commissions or translation—is a key advantage of UIDDA implementation.
(cf. UIDDA general guidelines)
Once issued, the Nevada subpoena must be served according to the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure. Acceptable methods include:
This service must also comply with statutory requirements regarding location and advance notice. Attorneys can enforce subpoenas or seek modification/quashing through an appropriate judicial motion if needed.
Nevada joined UIDDA on October 1, 2011, becoming one of the pioneering states to adopt the uniform process. Since then, all 17 Nevada counties operate under UIDDA, allowing seamless issuance of Nevada subpoenas for out-of-state matters.
