  "nuance": "Nevada splits by medium, and the telephone rule is the trap. In-person recording under NRS 200.650 is one-party. But NRS 200.620 joins its two exceptions with 'and', and in Lane v. Allstate, 114 Nev. 1176 (1998), the Nevada Supreme Court read that conjunctively: a party may NOT record a telephone call without every party's consent. Phone calls are effectively all-party; in-person conversations are not.",
