Plaintiff
Order Directing Clerk of Court to Accept
Security of Costs Under NRS 18.130

v.

Star Hill Homeowners Association, et al.,
[ECF No. 8]

8

Defendants

9
10
SFR Investments Pool 1, LLC demanded that Plaintiff Deutsche Bank National Trust

11
12

Company, an out-of-state resident, post a cost bond under NRS 18.130(1).1 The statute allows a

13

defendant in an action brought by an out-of-state plaintiff to demand that the plaintiff post a bond

14

to secure costs up to $500.2 Once the demand is filed and served, “all proceedings in the action

15

shall be stayed” until the cost bond is deposited.3 If the bond is not posted within 30 days of the

16

demand, the defendant may move for dismissal.4
Because a court order is required in this district for the Clerk of Court to permit the

17
18

posting of a cost bond, the demand is tracked as a motion in the court’s system. Accordingly,

19

with good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that SFR’s Demand for Security of

20

Costs [ECF No. 8] is GRANTED; the CLERK OF COURT is directed to accept the deposit

21

of $500.00 from plaintiff under NRS 18.130 as security for costs and charges that may be

22

awarded against this plaintiff in the event that the cost bond is presented for deposit. Plaintiff
