Sparks Justice Court has joined Las Vegas Justice Court in suspending eviction proceedings for 30 days.
Those suspensions covering all residents in Clark County and some in Washoe County are in addition to a 60-day suspension of foreclosures and evictions the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Department announced Friday for all mortgages insured nationwide by the Federal Housing Administration.
Nevada State Treasurer Zach Conine says approximately 85-percent of single-family homeowners in Nevada are insured by the FHA.
Reno Justice Court has suspended default evictions typically ordered if a resident fails to show up in court, but they still have to participate in a remote hearing with an extended deadline.
