90 P.3d 1286 (2004)

Richard BELL, D/B/A Liberty Realty, Appellant/Cross-Respondent, v. Robert LEVEN, Sandy Leven, RSV Limited Partnership, a Nevada Limited Partnership, Respondents/Cross-Appellants.

Supreme Court of Nevada.

June 11, 2004.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Gordon & Silver, Ltd., and Eric R. Olsen and Matthew C. Zirzow, Las Vegas, for Appellant/Cross-Respondent.

David K. Winter, Zephyr Cove, for Respondents/Cross-Appellants.

Before ROSE, MAUPIN and DOUGLAS, JJ.


OPINION

PER CURIAM.

In this appeal, we consider whether perpetual contracts are enforceable. We hold that when the express language of a contract provides that the contract has a perpetual duration, such language must be enforced. Accordingly, we reverse the district court's ruling that the perpetual duration clause in this contract was not legally sufficient, and remand this case for retrial.
