NRS 17.140 Death of party after verdict or decision; court may render
judgment; not to be lien on real property. If
a party dies after a verdict or decision upon any issue of fact, and before
judgment, the court may nevertheless render judgment thereon. Such judgment
shall not be a lien on the real property of the deceased party, but shall be
payable in the course of administration on the deceased party’s estate.
