Nevada Statute | Act | Code |Title 14 - Procedure In Criminal Cases| US Code - US Statute | Chapter 170

Public offenses may be prevented by the
intervention of the officers of justice by requiring surety to keep the
peace.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 12; RL § 6862; NCL § 10661]—(NRS A 1967, 1400)

      1. A complaint may be filed and warrant issued, as in other
criminal cases, for the arrest of any person who has threatened to commit
an offense against the person or property of another.

      2. Such a complaint may also be filed in a municipal court. The
city attorney shall act as prosecutor, and the proceedings shall conform
to the requirements of NRS 170.070 to
170.170 , inclusive.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 14; A 1925, 9; NCL § 10663]—(NRS A 1967, 1400)
When the
person complained of is brought before the justice of the peace or
magistrate, the trial on the charge shall proceed as in other criminal
cases.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 17; A 1925, 9; NCL § 10664]
If it
appears that there is no just reason to fear the commission of the
offense alleged to have been threatened, the person complained of must be
discharged.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 18; RL § 6868; NCL § 10665]

      1. If, however, there is a just reason to fear the commission of
the offense, the person complained of may be required to enter into a
bond, in such sum, not exceeding $5,000, as the magistrate may direct,
with one or more sufficient sureties, to keep the peace toward the people
of this State, and particularly toward the complainant.

      2. The bond shall be valid and binding for 6 months, and may, upon
the renewal of the complaint, be extended for a longer period or a new
bond may be required.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 19; RL § 6869; NCL § 10666]

      1. If the bond required by NRS 170.090 is given, the person complained of shall be
discharged.

      2. If he does not give it, the magistrate must commit him to
prison until he gives such bond, specifying in the warrant the
requirement to give security, the amount thereof, and the omission to pay
the same; but in no event shall the person complained of be confined in
prison for a period of longer than 6 months for a failure or omission to
give such bond.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 20; A 1915, 16; 1919 RL § 6870; NCL § 10667]
If the
person complained of is committed for not giving the bond required, he
may be discharged by any magistrate upon giving the same.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 21; RL § 6871; NCL § 10668]
A bond given, as provided in NRS
170.090 , must be filed by the
magistrate in the office of the clerk of the county.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 22; RL § 6872; NCL § 10669]
Any person who, in the presence of a court or magistrate,
assaults or threatens to assault another or to commit any offense against
his person or property, or who shall contend with another with angry
words, may be ordered by the court or magistrate to give security, as
provided in NRS 170.090 , or if he
refuses to do so, he may be committed as provided in NRS 170.100 .

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 23; RL § 6873; NCL § 10670]
A bond to keep the
peace must be deemed broken when the person complained against is
convicted of a breach of the peace.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 24; RL § 6874; NCL § 10671]
Upon the
district attorney’s producing evidence of such conviction to the district
court of the county, the court must order the bond to be prosecuted, and
the district attorney must thereupon commence an action on the same, in
the name of the State.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 25; RL § 6875; NCL § 10672]
In the action, the
offense stated in the record of conviction must be alleged as the breach
of the bond, and such record is conclusive evidence of the breach.

      [1911 Cr. Prac. § 26; RL § 6876; NCL § 10673]
No security to keep the peace,
or to be of good behavior, is required except as prescribed in this
chapter.
