(a) Appoint a private debt collector or any other person as his or her agent to:

(1) File an application for the entry of summary judgment against the debtor pursuant to NRS 353C.150; or

(2) Record a certificate of liability against the debtor in the office of a county recorder pursuant to NRS 353C.180; and
