Legal Interest Rate
As a result of Senate Bill 45, the Nevada State Legislature has revised NRS 17.130, NRS 37.175, NRS 99.040, NRS 108.237, NRS 147.220, NRS 233.170 and NRS 645.847 to read:
"When no rate of interest is provided by contract, or otherwise by law, or specified in the judgment, the judgment draws interest at a rate equal to the prime rate at the largest bank in Nevada as ascertained by the commissioner of financial institutions on January 1 or July 1, as the case may be, immediately preceding the date of judgment, plus 2 percent. The rate must be adjusted accordingly on each January 1 and July 1 thereafter until the judgment is satisfied."
On September 25, 1987, the judges voted to have this rate established by the Court Administrator in accordance with Senate Bill 45. Accordingly, I hereby establish the following.
- If a rate of interest is stated in the judgment, that rate shall take precedence.
- If no rate of interest is stated in actions filed on and after July 1, 2025, add 9.5% (prime rate 7.5% plus 2%).
- This rate of interest shall be adjusted again on December 31, 2025.
