(NRS 201.090, NRS 201.100, NRS 201.110)
Explained by Las Vegas NV Criminal Defense Lawyers

Many decent parents and guardians are accused of "contributing to the delinquency of a minor" in Las Vegas even though they did nothing wrong.  Our Las Vegas NV criminal defense lawyers have vast experience in all aspects of Las Vegas child abuse law and will fight tirelessly to show that you're not to blame.

But if you were initially charged with a more serious crime such as violating Nevada child neglect or endangerment law,1 then "contributing to the delinquency of a minor" in Nevada may then serve as a good offense to plea bargain to because it's only a misdemeanor and carries less harsh penalties. Note that the Nevada crime of selling or furnishing alcohol to a minor is a misdemeanor.
