Lanoue v. State, Welfare Div.
Nevada Supreme Court · Decided May 20, 2015

Lanoue v. State, Welfare Div.

Opinion

the obligor is not present); see also NRS 425.3828(5) (providing that when an order is entered recommending a parent reimburse the Division for his or her child support obligation to a custodial parent receiving public assistance after the obligor parent fails to respond to a notice regarding his duty to reimburse the Division, the obligor may seek relief from the order under NRCP 60(b)). Additionally, because the child support action was closed when appellant filed his request, to the extent appellant was attempting to file a new action to determine paternity, such an action would be improper because paternity had already been established and because it would be time barred as he filed it after the child had turned 21.

See NRS 126.081 (explaining that an action to determine paternity is barred three years after the child reaches the age of majority).

Accordingly, we ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
