This is a numerical list of Nevada State Supreme Court Cases in the State Archives. The cases for 1865-1997 are indexed in Volume 45 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS). The index in NRS refers to a volume and page number in the Reports of Cases Determined in the Supreme Court of the State of Nevada, also known as the Nevada Reports, which in turn refers to the case number necessary to find the case in the State Archives or the Special Collections Department at University of Nevada, Las Vegas Library.

Carson St.; Carson City NV 89701-4702; (775) 684-1600 (or in Las Vegas at (702) 486-9399) during the hours of 8:00-5:00, Monday-Friday. E-mail: nvscclerk@nvcourts.state.nv.us.
