Q: In Nevada, would it be legal to throw away my ex fiance's stuff? He cheated on me and left 3 months ago

A: In Nevada, throwing away your ex-fiancé's belongings could potentially lead to legal trouble. While it's understandable that you want to move on, you are legally required to give reasonable notice before disposing of his possessions. This typically involves informing him, preferably in writing, and giving him a deadline to collect his items.

You mentioned trying to coordinate last month, but if there's been no response, it might be helpful to send a final notice. This notice should clearly state a reasonable time frame, like 30 days, for him to retrieve his belongings. Keep records of your communication efforts to show that you've made reasonable attempts to return his property.

If he still doesn't collect his things after this period, you might then have more legal standing to dispose of them. However, considering the value of the items, consulting with a legal advisor can provide more specific guidance to avoid any potential liability. This approach ensures you're handling the situation fairly and within the law.
