What is Notice of Hearing (Set Aside Estate) – Nevada?
The Notice of Hearing (Set Aside Estate) is a Nevada District Court notice, published by the Nevada Supreme Court Self-Help Center, telling heirs, devisees and the Nevada Health Authority director of a hearing on a petition to set aside an estate without administration.
The notice is addressed to two recipients printed on the form: all heirs and devisees, and the Director of the Nevada Health Authority. Its text states that the petitioner has filed, in the court named in the caption, a Petition to Prove Will and/or Set Aside the Estate Without Administration for the decedent, and that a hearing has been set. The date, time, location, court address and courtroom number are marked on the form for the court clerk to insert. The second page asks for the names of the individuals you intend to receive the decedent's property (five numbered lines), the date, and the signature and printed name of the person submitting it.
The page footer prints the title as "Notice of Hearing (Set Aside)" and carries a © 2026 Nevada Supreme Court notice. It is not a petition. The Self-Help Center lists it in its Set Aside group of probate forms, next to Petition to Set Aside Estate Without Administration - No Will, Petition to Prove Will and Set Aside Estate Without Administration - Will, and Certificate of Mailing - Set Aside, which are separate forms.
Who needs to file Notice of Hearing (Set Aside Estate) – Nevada?
The person who filed a Petition to Prove Will and/or Set Aside the Estate Without Administration completes this notice, because its text names the petitioner and states that the petition is on file. The header carries a "Self-Represented" label with spaces for your name, address, telephone and email, so the form is built for people filing without a lawyer.
The notice is directed to all heirs and devisees and to the Director of the Nevada Health Authority; those are recipients, not people who complete the form.
Do not use this form as the petition itself. The petitions to set aside an estate, with a will or without one, are separate forms listed by the Nevada Supreme Court Self-Help Center in the same Set Aside group. The form does not say who else may sign for the petitioner; the printed signature block is for the person submitting it.
When to file Notice of Hearing (Set Aside Estate) – Nevada
The notice comes after the petition: its text says the petitioner has already filed a Petition to Prove Will and/or Set Aside the Estate Without Administration and that a hearing has been set. Prepare it once the court has the petition and the hearing details are known, since the court clerk inserts the date, time, location, court address and courtroom number on the form. The form prints no deadline of its own, so any filing or service time limit comes from the court handling your case and from the Self-Help Center's probate guidance on the set aside process.

How to submit Notice of Hearing (Set Aside Estate) – Nevada
The form prints no filing address, portal or in-person rule, so it is filed with the Nevada District Court named in its caption, following the court's procedures for your case.
- Where it goes: the caption reads "District Court, ___ County, Nevada" and refers to the court where your petition was filed, so the notice belongs to that court's case.
- Hearing details: the court clerk inserts the date, time, location, court address and courtroom number in the section marked for the clerk.
- Filing instructions: the Nevada Supreme Court Self-Help Center directs readers to its Basics of Court Forms page for how to fill out and file court forms; its probate forms page also points to the Petition to Set Aside Estate page for the process.
- Companion form: the Self-Help Center lists Certificate of Mailing - Set Aside as a separate form in the same group.
FillingPDF lets you fill out and download the PDF; submission follows the court's channels.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Filling in the hearing date, time, location, court address or courtroom number yourself; the form marks that section for the court clerk to insert.
- Leaving the county blank in the caption "District Court, ___ County, Nevada" or the decedent's name blank under "In the Matter of the Estate of".
- Leaving out the petitioner's name in the "PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that" sentence, which identifies who filed the petition.
- Leaving the numbered list of individuals who will receive the decedent's property empty.
- Skipping the DATED line (month, day, year) or the signature and printed name under "Submitted By".
- Using this notice in place of the petition; it only announces a hearing on a Petition to Prove Will and/or Set Aside the Estate Without Administration.
