Appears to be the same with Nevada on the "Resident Agent", and the |
45 |
definition of a register agent is as follows. |
46 |
|
47 |
NRS 88A.070 “Resident agent” defined. “Resident agent” means the agent |
48 |
appointed by a business trust upon whom process or a notice or demand |
49 |
authorized by law to be served upon the business trust may be served. |

(Added to NRS by 1999, 1561 |

So that's that. I'll try to look into exactly what DC requires this weekend. |
