What it does

The legislature's own summary of the bill, or its official long title.

Under existing law, a court is required or authorized, depending on certain factors, to award a prevailing party certain costs incurred in connection with certain civil actions. (NRS 18.020, 18.050) Existing law defines the term “costs” for purposes of such an award to include certain fees, costs and expenses. (NRS 18.005) This bill expands the definition of “costs” to include reasonable fees for the provision of a focus group.
