696B.200  Jurisdiction over related persons and transactions; service of process.

      1.  A court of this state in which an order of rehabilitation or liquidation has been entered in delinquency proceedings against a domestic insurer or alien insurer domiciled in this state, has jurisdiction also over persons, served as provided in subsection 2, in an action brought by the insurer’s receiver on or arising out of such obligation or relationship, as follows:

      (a) Persons obligated to the insurer as a result of agency or brokerage or transactions between such persons and the insurer;

      (b) Reinsurers of the insurer and their representatives; and

      (c) Past or present officers, managers, trustees, directors, organizers and promoters of the insurer, and other persons in positions of similar responsibility with the insurer.

      2.  As to those of such persons who are in this state, personal service of process shall be made as in other civil actions. As to those of such persons who cannot be found in this state at the time process is to be served, personal service of process shall be made thereon by a public officer of the jurisdiction in which such person may be found, in the same manner as personal service of process is required to be made within this state under the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure; and the affidavit or certificate under oath setting forth the facts of such service shall be filed in the court in this state in which the action is pending.
