Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Nevada
Landlord-Tenant
I lived in a single family residence for one year seven months. No lease agreement was ever presented to me nor were any deposits ever requested. The landlord is now demanding that I pay for repairs on the home, if I don't she is planning on taking me to small claims court. What does the law say about this situation. Does she have a case, what course of action should I persue.

Re: Landlord-Tenant
According to the property code, the landlord is responsible for repairs. Unless, that is, the tenant caused the condition requiring the repair. There is a limited exception but it must be in a written lease which does not apply here
