How far a decision reaches depends on the court. The U.S. Supreme Court binds every court on federal law. The highest court of Nevada binds every Nevada court on Nevada law. A federal court of appeals binds the federal courts in its circuit, and not the state’s own courts on state law. Which decision applies to a particular situation is a question for a licensed attorney.
