Third-party errors.

1. The Department is not responsible for third-party errors, including those of a bank. If an applicant to obtain a tag, permit or bonus point proves to the satisfaction of the Department that the rejection of his or her application was due solely to a third-party error, and there is sufficient time to complete the processing of the application before the drawing for which the application was submitted, the Department shall include the application in the procedure for awarding tags. 2. If the application of an applicant who is entitled to participate in a bonus point program is not entered into that drawing solely because of a third-party error, and the applicant fails to obtain a tag to participate in a hunt during the year the application was submitted, the applicant is entitled to a bonus point for the species or the category of the species for which the application was submitted. 3. As used in this section, “third-party error” means the failure to act or commission of an act, by a person or entity other than the Department or an applicant to obtain a tag, permit or bonus point which provides a ground for rejecting an application pursuant to NAC 502.418 .
