1. Each witness, other than an officer or employee of the State or of a political subdivision of the State or an expert witness, who appears by order of the Director in a hearing pursuant to NRS 482.36311 to 482.36425, inclusive, is entitled to receive for attending the hearing the same fees allowed by law to witnesses in civil cases. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the amount must be paid by the party at whose request the witness is ordered to appear.
2. The Director may assess other costs against the parties as the Director deems appropriate. After any hearing on a protest filed pursuant to NRS 482.36352, 482.36354 or 482.36357, if the Director determines that the manufacturer or distributor has failed to establish that there is good cause to terminate, refuse to continue, modify or replace a franchise, or to establish an additional dealership or relocate an existing dealership, the Director shall award to the dealer attorney’s fees and costs.
3. For the purposes of this section, “costs” includes:
(a) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b), any applicable cost set forth in NRS 18.005; and
(b) The actual amount of any fees paid by a dealer to an expert witness in connection with the hearing.
