Yes. Your previous domestic violence convictions do not have to be from Nevada if you are facing third-degree domestic violence accusations. Nevada can and will use your previous convictions to raise your offense to a Domestic Violence 3rd Felony, regardless of what state the conviction occurred. A conviction for Domestic Violence 3rd has serious repercussions. If you are convicted, you will be sentenced to prison, and the judge will have to sentence you to anywhere from 1 to 5 years in prison, as well as a fine of up to $10,000.
