Criminal exposure note
First offense: category B felony, 1 to 15 years' imprisonment and/or a fine of up to $15,000. Subsequent offense: category A felony, 10 years to life imprisonment with the possibility of parole, and a fine of up to $15,000.
Penalty structure
The $15,000 fine cap under NRS 200.725(2) is the same for a first offense (category B felony, 1 to 15 years' imprisonment) and a subsequent offense (category A felony, 10 years to life with the possibility of parole); imprisonment, not the fine, is what escalates between tiers.

NRS 200.725 makes it unlawful to knowingly prepare, advertise or distribute computer-generated child sexual abuse material; a first offense is a category B felony (one to fifteen years' imprisonment, a fine of up to $15,000, or both), and a subsequent offense is a category A felony (ten years to life with the possibility of parole, and a fine of up to $15,000).
