In any civil action brought in the district court in which the amount in controversy, excluding attorney’s fees, interest and costs of suit, is not less than $2,500 and not more than $15,000, the parties may stipulate that the action be dealt with as a summary proceeding. The stipulation must be in writing, signed by each party and filed no later than the time of filing the case conference report required by Rule 16.1 of the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure. Upon the motion of a party, or on its own, the court, for good cause, may rescind the designation of the case as a summary proceeding.
