Rule 73 - Bond for Costs on Appeal(a)When Bond Required. Unless an appellant in a civil action is exempted by law, or has filed a supersedeas bond or other undertaking that includes security for the payment of costs on appeal, the appellant must file a bond for costs on appeal or equivalent security in the justice court with the notice of appeal. A bond must not be required of an appellant who is not subject to costs.(b)Amount of Bond. The bond or equivalent security must be in the sum or value of $250 unless the justice court fixes a different amount. A bond for costs on appeal must have sufficient surety, and it or any equivalent security must be conditioned to secure the payment of costs in an amount directed by the district court if the appeal is finally dismissed or the judgment affirmed, or of such costs as the district court may direct if the judgment is modified.(c)Objections. After a bond for costs on appeal is filed, a respondent may raise for determination by the court objections to the form of the bond or to the sufficiency of the surety.(d)Proceeding Against a Surety. Rule 73A applies to a surety upon a bond given under this rule.Nev. Justice. Ct. R. Civ. P. 73
