2. Each of the documents named in
paragraph (a) of subsection 1 may be recorded in separate books in the
discretion of the county recorder.
3. Except as otherwise provided in this
subsection, before accepting for recording any document enumerated in
subsection 1, the county recorder shall require a document suitable for
recording by a method used by the recorder to preserve the recorder’s records.
The county recorder may conform the size of a declaration of homestead that
does not meet the formatting requirements set forth in subsection 3 of NRS 247.110 so that the declaration is
suitable for recording by a method used by the recorder to preserve the
recorder’s records. If any rights may be adversely affected because of a delay
in recording caused by this requirement, the county recorder shall accept the
document conditionally subject to submission of a suitable document at a later
date. Before accepting a document conditionally, the recorder shall require the
person who requests the recording to sign a statement that the person has been
advised of the requirements described in this subsection and record the
statement with the document.
