I suspect this is not really the statute about which you wish to ask. NRS 211.370 does not relate to handicapped parking spaces. This statute sets forth a protocol for the taking into custody of prisoner for whom outstanding warrant for arrest by another law enforcement agency exists. For example, if a person is in custody in Reno but is wanted on a misdemeanor warrant in Las Vegas, the Reno law enforcement agency which took the prisoner into custody shall notify the jurisdiction from which the warrant was issued (Las Vegas). If no other charges are pending in Reno, Las Vegas is required under this statute to take custody of the prisoner within 72 hours after receiving the notice. If there is a charge pending against the prisoner in Reno, Reno would then notify Las Vegas when the Reno matter is resolved so that Las Vegas could take custody. It is a relatively technical section governing priority and procedures or the custody of prisoners.
