Title : Title 03 - REMEDIES; SPECIAL ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS
Chapter : CHAPTER 36 - PROVISIONAL REMEDIES ON BEHALF OF DEFENDANT
 When the defendant interposes a counterclaim, and
thereupon demands an affirmative judgment against the plaintiff, his
right to a provisional remedy is the same as in an action brought by him
against the plaintiff, for the cause of action stated in the
counterclaim, and demanding the same judgment; and for the purpose of
applying to such a case the provisions of NRS relating to provisional
remedies, the defendant is deemed the plaintiff, the plaintiff is deemed
the defendant, and the counterclaim so set forth in the answer is deemed
the complaint.
