Nev. Sup. Ct. R. 106
Privilege and limitation
1. Privilege. All participants in the discipline process, including grievants, bar counsel staff, members of disciplinary panels, diversion and mentoring participants, and witnesses, shall be absolutely immune from civil liability. No action may be predicated upon the filing of a disciplinary complaint or grievance or any action taken in connection with such a filing by any of the participants, except that any disclosures made pursuant to SCR 121(16) shall not be immune under this rule.
2. Limitation. Disciplinary proceedings shall not be commenced against an attorney for alleged misconduct occurring more than 4 years prior to the receipt of the grievance or filing of the complaint by bar counsel. In the event of fraud or concealment, the 4-year period begins on the date the fraud or concealment was discovered by the grievant, or on the date facts were known to bar counsel, which should have led bar counsel to discover the alleged misconduct. For purposes of Rule of Professional Conduct 7.2A (Advertising Filing Requirements), the 4-year period begins on the date the advertisement or communication was actually known to bar counsel.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
