US-NV comparative fault rule
The controlling primary authority for US-NV damages allocation authority (Nev. Rev. Stat. § 41.141) is Nev..
Nev.. 1. In any action to recover damages for death or injury to persons or for injury to property in which comparative negligence is asserted as a defense, the comparative negligence of the plaintiff or the plaintiff's decedent does not bar a recovery if that negligence was not greater than the negligence or gross negligence of the parties to the action against whom recovery is sought.
