Truesdell v. State

OPINION

By the Court,

Gibbons, J.:

In this appeal, we consider whether a party may collaterally attack a temporary protective order in a separate criminal proceeding for violation of that order. We conclude that a party must initially challenge the validity of a temporary protective order under NRS 33.080(2) before the court that issued the order.
