Official statutory text

If the court in a proceeding under NRS 17.770 finds that the foreign-country judgment is entitled to recognition under NRS 17.700 to 17.820 , inclusive, then, to the extent that the foreign-country judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, the foreign-country judgment is:

1. Conclusive between the parties to the same extent as the judgment of a sister state entitled to full faith and credit in this State would be conclusive; and

2. Enforceable in the same manner and to the same extent as a judgment rendered in this State.
