Nevada Revised Statutes Section 193.162 - Crimes and Punishments

Additional penalty: Felony committed by adult with assistance of child.

1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 193.169 and 454.306, an adult who, with the assistance of a child:

(a) Commits a crime that is punishable as a category A or a category B felony shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for an additional term equal to the term of imprisonment prescribed by statute for the crime.

(b) Commits any felony other than a category A or a category B felony shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for an additional term not less than 25 percent and not more than 100 percent of the term of imprisonment prescribed by statute for the crime.

Ę An additional sentence prescribed by this section runs consecutively with the sentence prescribed by statute for the crime.

3. As used in this section:

(a) “Adult” means a person who is 18 years of age or older.

(b) “Child” means a person who is less than 18 years of age.
