What Forgery (NRS 205.090) actually means
Under Nevada law, Forgery is classified as a non-violent felony. The State must prove every element beyond a reasonable doubt — and that's where defense work begins.
When the booking happens at Clark County Detention Center, the case typically routes through Las Vegas Justice Court or Clark County District Court. Bail is set per the Clark County bail schedule for misdemeanors; felonies require a magistrate appearance within 48–72 hours.
