Nevada Bankruptcy Court

The Nevada Bankruptcy Court is a federal court that handles cases where individuals or businesses seek relief from overwhelming debt. It processes different types of bankruptcy, including Chapter 7, which involves liquidation of assets, and Chapter 13, which allows for debt reorganization and repayment plans. The court protects debtors from creditors while their cases are being resolved and ensures that the bankruptcy laws are fairly applied. Judges in this court review cases, approve plans, and make decisions regarding the discharge of debts and the management of assets.
