Text

If, before the administration of any estate transferred as provided in NRS 136.030 is closed, another person becomes judge of the court in which the proceeding was originally commenced who is not disqualified to act in the settlement of the estate, and the causes for which the proceeding was transferred no longer exist, any interested person may have the proceeding returned to the judge who succeeded the disqualified judge, by filing a petition setting forth these facts and moving the court to grant the petition. If these facts are satisfactorily shown, the court must make an order transferring the proceeding back to the judge who is not disqualified.
