Beginning October 1, 2025, you can claim a coerced‑debt defense if you are sued on an unsecured consumer debt. Coerced debt means a personal, family, or household debt you took on because of fraud, duress, intimidation, threats of force, or undue influence, and you were a victim of sex trafficking or domestic violence by a spouse, former spouse, relative, co‑resident, dating partner, or a person with whom you share a child. To use it, you must file a written attestation naming the debt, stating facts about the coercion, giving known details about the coercer (or a sworn statement if naming them would likely cause abuse), and listing any prior filings and results. You must attach at least one document: a police or investigative report, an FTC identity‑theft report, or a protection order or other court record. If the court finds the debt was coerced, the creditor must stop collection, and the court will direct reasonable steps to fix your credit reports when needed. The creditor may add the alleged coercer to the case, and you may recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs from that person (not from the creditor). This defense does not cover credit instruments defined under Nevada gaming law.
A check or draft that counts as a gaming credit instrument is treated as presented in the usual course of business if it is presented within 2 years of issue. This rule is now in effect and applies to credit instruments signed before, on, or after the effective date. Other criminal presumptions for bad checks remain the same.
