Official statutory text

1. A peace officer or probation officer who takes a child into custody pursuant to NRS 62C.010 shall, before initiating a custodial interrogation, disclose to the child: (a) You have the right to remain silent, which means you do not have to say anything to me unless you want to. It is your choice. (b) If you choose to talk to me, whatever you tell me I can tell a judge in court. (c) You have the right to have your parent or guardian with you while you talk to me. (d) You have the right to have a lawyer with you while you talk to me. If your family cannot or will not pay for a lawyer, you will get a free lawyer. That lawyer is your lawyer and can help you if you decide that you want to talk to me. (e) These are your rights. Do you understand what I have told you? (f) Do you want to talk to me?

2. As used in this section, “ custodial interrogation ” means any interrogation of a person who is required to be advised of his or her rights pursuant to Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966) .
