Where to File in Nevada
Nevada has a 2-year personal injury statute under NRS § 11.190(4)(e) with the discovery rule. Nevada plaintiffs file in MDL 2921 in the District of New Jersey. Clark County District Court (Las Vegas) provides a state court venue for Allergan BIOCELL claims. Las Vegas is among the most active cosmetic surgery markets in the Mountain West — a high volume of Natrelle 410 and BIOCELL textured implants were placed in Las Vegas cosmetic surgery practices from 2005 through 2019. BIA-ALCL diagnoses in Nevada from 2024 onward are within the 2-year limitations window.
