NRS 453.348 Previous convictions. In
any proceeding brought under NRS 453.316,
453.321, 453.322, 453.333,
453.334, 453.337, 453.338
or 453.401, any previous convictions of
the offender for a felony relating to controlled substances must be alleged in
the indictment or information charging the primary offense, but the conviction
may not be alluded to on the trial of the primary offense nor may any evidence
of the previous offense be produced in the presence of the jury except as
otherwise prescribed by law. If the offender pleads guilty or guilty but
mentally ill to, or is convicted of, the primary offense but denies any
previous conviction charged, the court shall determine the issue after hearing
all relevant evidence. A certified copy of a conviction of a felony is prima
facie evidence of the conviction.
