What is the name of your state? nv

The last poster said "It was allowed to be contested beause Mo allows up to a year to contest, but only on the basis of duress, coercion, etc' about there step-parent adoption.

Does anyone know about a legth of time to contest in Nevada. I googled it but found nothing.

Thanks in advance!

This was the best that I could do...

NRS 127.165 When action to set aside adoption may be brought; presumption of child’s best interest after adoption is granted.

1. The natural parent of a child may not bring an action to set aside an adoption after a petition for adoption has been granted, unless a court of competent jurisdiction has previously, in a separate action:

(a) Set aside the consent to the adoption;

(b) Set aside the relinquishment of the child for adoption; or

(c) Reversed an order terminating the parental rights of the natural parent.

2. After a petition for adoption has been granted, there is a presumption for the purposes of this chapter that remaining in the home of the adopting parent is in the child’s best interest.

(Added to NRS by 1995, 733)



Good luck.
