  1.

(b) Refrain from contacting, intimidating, threatening or otherwise interfering with the victim of the alleged sexual assault and any other person named in the order, including, without limitation, a member of the family or the household of the victim of the alleged sexual assault.  (c) Comply with any other restriction which the court deems necessary to protect the victim of the alleged sexual assault or to protect any other person named in the order, including, without limitation, a member of the family or the household of the victim of the alleged sexual assault.  2. If a defendant charged with a crime involving sexual assault is released from custody before trial or is found guilty at the trial, the court may issue a temporary or extended order or provide as a condition of the release or sentence that the defendant:  (a) Stay away from the home, school, business or place of employment of the victim of the alleged sexual assault and any other location specifically named by the court.  (b) Refrain from contacting, intimidating, threatening or otherwise interfering with the victim of the alleged sexual assault and any other person named in the order, including, without limitation, a member of the family or the household of the victim of the alleged sexual assault.  (c) Comply with any other restriction which the court deems necessary to protect the victim of the alleged sexual assault or to protect any other person named in the order, including, without limitation, a member of the family or the household of the victim of the alleged sexual assault.  3. A temporary order may be granted with or without notice to the adverse party. An extended order may be granted only after:  (a) Notice of the petition for the order and of the hearing thereon is served upon the adverse party pursuant to the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure; and  (b) A hearing is held on the petition.  4. If an extended order is issued by a justice court, an interlocutory appeal lies to the district court, which may affirm, modify or vacate the order in question. The appeal may be taken without bond, but its taking does not stay the effect or enforcement of the order.  5. Unless a more severe penalty is prescribed by law for the act that constitutes the violation of the order, any person who intentionally violates:  (a) A temporary order is guilty of a gross misdemeanor.  (b) An extended order is guilty of a category C felony and shall be punished as provided in NRS 193.130.  6. Any court order issued pursuant to this section must:  (a) Be in writing;  (b) Be personally served on the person to whom it is directed; and  (c) Contain the warning that violation of the order:  (1) Subjects the person to immediate arrest.  (2) Is a gross misdemeanor if the order is a temporary order.  (3) Is a category C felony if the order is an extended order.  7. A temporary or extended order issued pursuant to this section must provide notice that a person who is arrested for violating the order will not be admitted to bail sooner than 12 hours after the arrest if:  (a) The arresting officer determines that such a violation is accompanied by a direct or indirect threat of harm;  (b) The person has previously violated a temporary or extended order for protection; or  (c) At the time of the violation or within 2 hours after the violation, the person has:  (1) A concentration of alcohol of 0.08 or more in his or her blood or breath; or  (2) An amount of a prohibited substance in his or her blood or urine, as applicable, that is equal to or greater than the amount set forth in subsection 3 or 4 of NRS 484C.110.
