Area 51

  • Law

  • More on the fallout from last week’s Supreme Court decision about misdemeanor jury trials. [TNI]
  • Nevada pretrial risk assessment training created for Nevada Justice System. The Nevada Supreme Court ordered on March 21, 2019 all courts in Nevada begin considering risk factors when deciding bail conditions. This training shows court personnel, judges, and attorneys how to implement the order. Courts have until August 2020 to start using the tool (18 months from the order). [NV courts]
  • Email shows reluctance to prosecute suspects in inmate’s death. [RJ]
  • Any predictions about what will happen with the Area 51 events this weekend?

It will be the Mojave version of the Fyre Festival, but without the delightful competing documentaries afterwards.

CCBA plans a Bar Crawl in the Arts District. Feel free to catch them at:

• 6 pm to 6:30 pm – Park on Fremont, 506 Fremont St.
• 6:45 pm to 7: 15 pm – Evel Pie, 508 Fremont St.
• 7:30 pm to 8 pm – Vanguard Lounge, 516 Fremont St.
• 8:15 pm to 8:45 pm – Corduroy, 515 Fremont St.
• 9:00 pm to 9:30 pm – Triple B, 601 Fremont St.

But before you do, realize that the Arts District is ONE MILE away from any of these bars.

The Bar: alcohol and drugs are serious problem amongst the bar. You need to take yearly courses on the dangers of addiction.

Also the bar: Let's sponsor a Bar Crawl!!

Haha. "The Bar" in question is two different things. I think there's actually a bar called BAR, too. They would also like to talk to you about your alcohol consumption.
