Applied in 17 court decisions — leading case Turner v. Staggs (1973)
Most recently applied in Booth v. United States (January 2019)
[1911 CPA § 34; A 1951, 54]—(NRS A 1973, 1577; 1977, 1081)
Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.
If a person entitled to bring an action other than for the recovery of real property be, at the time the cause of action accrued, either:
1. Within the age of 18 years; or
2. Insane; or
3. In the custodial care of the State, if placed in such care while less than 18 years of age, except when the person is imprisoned, paroled or on probation,
Ê the time of such disability shall not be a part of the time limited for the commencement of the action.
