Nev. Sup. Ct. R. 54
Fees
1. An applicant for a license to practice as an attorney and counselor at law in this state shall pay to the treasurer of the state bar the fees as determined by the board of bar examiners.
2. In addition to the fees required in subsection 1 of this rule, an applicant making late applications shall pay to the treasurer of the state bar a late fee as determined by the board of bar examiners for any late application.
3. Refunds. No payments shall be refunded nor shall fees be held in abeyance for subsequent administrations of the comprehensive licensing examination components.
4. The board of bar examiners shall assess against an applicant such further fees or costs as in the opinion of the board are reasonably necessary to conduct investigations, to hold hearings, and to take depositions either within or without the State of Nevada concerning the character of the applicant. The board of bar examiners shall establish appropriate fees to be charged for informal and formal hearings to cover the cost of investigations, hearings, transcripts, and/or depositions. Any such fees assessed shall be paid into the treasury of the State Bar of Nevada prior to the commencement of any such investigation, hearing, or the taking of a deposition.
Should the actual fees or costs incurred in the conduct of such investigation, hearing, or taking of a deposition exceed the amount assessed by the board of bar examiners, the applicant shall pay the excess fees or costs before a final determination is made in the applicant’s case upon the entry of a further order therefor by the board.
Failure to pay such fees as may be assessed by the board of bar examiners may be considered grounds for denial of admission.
Within thirty days after written notice to the applicant of the entry of an order by the board of bar examiners assessing further fees or costs pursuant to this rule, the applicant may petition the supreme court for a review thereof.
