After an arrest
- Who decides release first
A judge, usually a justice of the peace, decides release at a pretrial release hearing held within 48 hours of custody. Before that hearing, a sheriff or police chief may release people without a hearing where a court's administrative order allows it. For domestic battery, state law fixes the bail amount for anyone released after a 12-hour hold without seeing a judge.
NRS 178.484, 178.4847, 178.4849- Time to see a judge
A court must hold a pretrial release hearing within 48 hours after a person is taken into custody. Separately, if an arrested person has not seen a magistrate within 72 hours, not counting weekends and holidays, the magistrate must ask the prosecutor why and may release the person.
