Hunt v. Hunt
Nevada Supreme Court · Decided June 11, 2015

Hunt v. Hunt

Opinion

equitable relief after NRCP 60(b)'s time period has expired, Doan, 130 Nev., Adv. Op. 48, 327 P.3d at 501-02, such relief was not warranted here since the assets were actually adjudicated. An asset is adjudicated if the parties had a fair opportunity to litigate the division of the property. Id. at 502. Here, the district court specifically found that the property at issue had been previously litigated and adjudicated in the divorce decree, and substantial evidence supports the district court's determination. The record indicates that appellant had a fair opportunity to litigate the division of each of the assets he identifies, and the divorce decree disposes of the categories of property appellant contends were left undivided.

Appellant's assertion that certain property was not explicitly named in the divorce decree is inconsequential, because the fact that an asset was not mentioned in the decree is not an exceptional circumstance justifying equitable relief. Id. at 503.

Accordingly, for the reasons discussed above, we ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED. 1
