That Jerbic roommate story is disconcerting. I've always liked Brad but this is not a good look. The only positive here is that the $100,000 in restitution has actually been paid to the victim (an expensive roommate – who I'm guessing doesn't pay rent).
Reading it made me sick to my stomach. What kind of "relationship" does he have with this "roommate" where sexual assault of a 13-year old child doesn't stop personal favors worth hundreds of thousands of dollars (including the restitution, job connections and presumably free rent)? Disgusting.
That story is gross. Nice of all those govt employees to discuss it over email though. At least we, and the victim, know they all knew something was amiss and they did nothing about it. Disgusting.
@2:03 How did you draw that conclusion? The story literally says that nobody at the city (except Jerbic) was aware of the situation with the roommate when it was going down.
I am not @2:03 but I think you are each talking about different things…. Did CLV personnel know that Jerbic's roommate who was getting preferential and protected treatment was accused of sex crimes? Probably not (although Wolfson clearly knew of the connection in appointing Jorgenson). Did CLV personnel know that there was this inappropriate, preferential and protected relationship and do nothing about it except write snarky emails to each other? Obviously.
Yes, seems pretty clear that Walker is Jerbic's boy toy. Cherry on top is the $100k restitution check paid by an "unnamed benefactor." Makes one wonder what Walker could have exposed about Jerbic. ha
Not to take away from the weirdness of the Jerbic roommate story, but can we talk about how he has $195K a year pension from PERS!? The other day people were saying judges max out at making that much. How is a city attorney making more than in retirement?
While I envy this pension, I am admittedly not disciplined enough to handle this amount of money and would likely wind-up face down in a ditch within a year with this amount of financial freedom. 35 more years to go for me, then hopefully retiring to a cush job as a Wal Mart greeter in a city somewhere less expensive than La$ Vega$.
Unless he's under an even older version of PERS, it's 90% of your top 3 years with annual COLA increases. Sounds about right to me. Nowadays it's 75% max, with even smaller COLAs.
Low 200s salary for the city attorney sounds about right to me. The real issue to me is that district/appeals/NVSC judges don't make nearly enough.
Yes, 12:58 PM is probably correct that he is likely under the old version of PERS so low two hundreds from base and yearly living increases seems about right.
There was a family court judge who allowed his former roommate to practice in his court without telling the other side (sometimes in family court a judge will say hey I used to attend Church or be on a bowling league or something any objections) but the judge hid it
I don’t feel comfortable saying his exact name but I will say he was eventually suspended by judicial commission on another matter and is no longer a judge
…who was the former roommate because this just got interesting!

I hate hate hate hate the state bar. Instead of using their finger paints to draft up some incomprehensible civility code that is selectively enforced and probably a violation of the 1st amendment, those dipshits on the board of governors could try to tackle the Byzantine maze that is our CLE reporting.
Nah, they are too buys awarding DEI medallions to the firms who practice woke liturgy.

Looking for some anonymous help from my colleagues… I'll try to keep it as simple as possible but will add details if you think any are needed.
Plaintiff files Complaint, serves it, hears nothing from Defendant, gets Default, gets a letter from an attorney saying that the wrong Defendant was named, speaks with this attorney and explains that it's definitely not the wrong Defendant, follows up by email asking if there's going to be any response, hears nothing further, finally files Application for Default Judgment. Then Defendant files an Answer w/ no attempt to set aside the Default.
From here, do we proceed as if the Defendant is still in Default, or is the Default automatically set aside because the Defendant answered?
I would file a motion to strike the answer on an order shortening time. in the application for the order shortening time, I would ask the Court to consider the motion to strike at the same time as the default judgment. That why you will get all this sorted out at once and avoid a later motion to set aside the default and/or default judgment.
Proceed as if the Answer is a nullity. When you file your AFDJ, reference that there is a fugitive Answer but that Defendant has never moved to set aside the Default. It is not automatically set aside. There are judges who will say "Meh I will treat the Answer as a de facto request to set aside." But defer to the rule that the Default has not been set aside and that Defendant is limited to defending only as to damages.

How did this fly under the radar until now???
I am saddened, angered and stunned. I think we all know what happened here. The dots are too close together to not connect themselves.

Ask Judge Larren Lyttle what motivates men.

Public employee compensation is public record.

Who was that?

Gag order, Esq
Well, the judge is obviously a man. Google "las vegas family court judge suspended" and you'll see the likely answer.
to 9:39 — what a state of affairs that this google search result presented three options to consider.
If there’s that much interest – it was Pottter
