Nevada Revised Statutes Section 138.090 - Wills and Estates of Deceased Persons

Administrators with will annexed: Order of appointment.

1. Administrators with the will annexed have the same authority as the executor named in the will would have had if the executor had qualified, and their acts are as effectual for every purpose, but if the power or authority conferred upon the executor is discretionary, and is not conferred by law, it is not conferred upon an administrator with the will annexed.

2. Persons and their nominees and appointees are entitled to appointment as administrators with the will annexed in the same order of priority as in the appointment of administrators, except that, as to foreign letters, an interested person has priority over one who is not.
