Where would my case be heard?
Nevada allows claims against institutions until age 38 and has no limitations period against perpetrators (2021 reform) — one of the clearest paths in the Mormon corridor, including for survivors who live in Utah today.
Nevada offers one of the corridor’s clearest institutional paths: claims against institutions may be brought until the survivor turns 38, and claims against perpetrators face no limitations period under the 2021 reform. A February 2026 filing in Nevada state court — over 1990s abuse allegedly reported to a bishop who took no action, per the docket — illustrates the lane: decades-old claims with bishop-knowledge evidence remain viable here in ways Utah forecloses. Survivors who lived in Nevada wards, attended Nevada stakes, or whose abuse occurred during travel or callings in Nevada may have a Nevada path even if they live in Utah today. Clark County (Las Vegas) and Washoe County (Reno) district courts are the principal venues; Jane/John Doe filing is available by motion.
