What Possession of Stolen Property (NRS 205.275) actually means
Under Nevada law, Possession of Stolen Property 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 Nye County Detention Center, the case typically routes through Pahrump Justice Court or Fifth Judicial District Court. Nye County uses its own bail schedule for misdemeanors; felonies require an appearance in Pahrump Justice Court and the Fifth Judicial District Court.
