As used in NRS 278.497 to 278.4987, inclusive, the words and terms defined in NRS 278.4971 to 278.4977, inclusive, have the meanings ascribed to them in those sections, unless the context otherwise requires.
The legislature occasionally skips outline levels.
For example:
(3) A person may apply [...]
(4)(a) A person petitioning for relief [...]
In this example, (3), (4),
and (4)(a) are all outline levels, but
(4) was
omitted by its authors. It's only implied. This presents an
interesting challenge when laying out the text. We've
decided to display a blank section with this note, in order
to aide readability.
