Nevada Municipal Courts are courts in the state of Nevada that preside over misdemeanor violations of city ordinances and other violations of municipal ordinances.

Jurisdiction

Civil cases heard by Municipal Courts include violations of municipal ordinances, actions to stop nuisances, some tax collection and other types of claims for less than $2500 that are brought by the city or its agents.[1]

Municipal Courts cannot hear claims related to the validity of a tax, assessment or levy, or the title to real property. Claims beyond the jurisdiction of a Municipal Court will be transferred to a court with jurisdiction over the case.[2]
