Post-judgment interest in Nevada is calculated at a rate equal to the prime rate at the largest bank in Nevada plus 2 percent. The rate gets readjusted each January 1 and July 1 thereafter until the judgment is satisfied.   You can find the Prime Interest Rate for Judgment collections here: http://fid.state.nv.us/Prime/PrimeInterestRate.pdf As you can see, the Prime Rate has been at 3.25% for five years; therefore the Judgment Rate has been at 5.25% for five years.
