Case No. 2:09-cv-01334-PMP-PAL
ORDER
(App. Judgment Debtor Exam - Dkt. #83)
12
13
Before the court is Plaintiffs’ Application for Judgment Debtor Examination of Vito A. Longo
14
(Dkt. #83). Plaintiffs’ seek an order requiring Longo to appear for a judgment debtor examination to
15
answer questions concerning his personal and real property available to satisfy a judgment entered
16
against him on April 11, 2011. Plaintiffs represent that Longo made one payment toward satisfaction of
17
the judgment, but they have since learned that Longo will not be making any further payments. From
18
Clark County Assessor records, Plaintiffs understand Longo owns two parcels of real property in Clark
19
County, Nevada. For these reasons, the application seeks an order compelling Longo’s attendance at a
20
judgment debtor examination pursuant to the provision of Nevada Revised Statute 21.270.
21
NRS 21.270 permits a judgment creditor to take a judgment debtor examination to appear and
22
answer questions under oath concerning his or her property at a time and place specified in the order.
23
However, the statute is explicit: “No judgment debtor may be required to appear outside the county in
24
which he resides.” The application does not state that Longo resides in Clark County, only that he has
25
property here. Accordingly,
