Outcome
Nevada Supreme Court denied Okada's writ petition challenging the district court's denial of his protective order motion. The Court upheld the district court's discretion to require Okada's 10-day deposition in Las Vegas rather than at his residence in Hong Kong or Tokyo, and rejected arguments regarding common-law and rule-based presumptions.
