Zimmerman– you blew it on the guy filming the cops. https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/courts/youtuber-self-proclaimed-first-amendment-auditor-gets-6-months-behind-bars-3026550/?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=topnews&utm_source=homepage&utm_term=YouTuber%2C%20self-proclaimed%20%E2%80%98First%20Amendment%E2%80%99%20auditor%20gets%206%20months%20behind%20bars
I watched the entire trial on youtube, I think the cop was a little fast to react, but at least initially simply asked Decastro to step back and film from a greater distance, so of course Decastro approached the driver and got in her face. The appeal is going to Leavitt, so he loses there for sure.

It is the six months in jail that she blew it. It is a waste of taxpayer dollars. It is a waste of court dollars. It is a waste of DA dollars. It is a waste.
Agreed. He did step over the line and then was an ass about it. 30 days or so of house arrest I would say.
State requested Impulse control class, $500 fine / community service, stay out of trouble order, and 90 day sentence (suspended).
Defendant got consecutive 90-day sentences. Lesson? Calling the court’s marshal a pig in front of the judge is unlikely to endear you to the court.
And I’m usually on the side of the auditors, because most of the time, the cop overreacts, gets suuuper aggressive, or clearly violates rights. I’m with 4:50. The cop might have reacted a little quickly, but he told him multiple times to step back. He never told him he couldn’t record.
Telles pled guilty this morning!
Yeah yeah we know what day it is. See you tomorrow.
I’ve been on guard ALL DAY but this one got me for a second, kudos
Not Nevada, but a pretty shocking federal filing:

OBC going to hire people with actual legal experience.
I have one of these types of pro pers litigating against my client here in Nevada. Got peeved the first couple of filings. Developed an understanding with the Court that there would simply be standing Orders to strike and seal every time once of these types of pleadings came in. We have sealed about 15 pleadings in the case so far. No this is not an April Fools joke. Litigate long enough and you will run into one of these.
The person that filed this is a lawyer.
Darn it if you are not correct. And a Northwestern Law School grad.
Always fun to file that Federal Motion to Designate Plaintiff as a Vexatious litigant.
Nevada needs a state equivalent.
There is a statute in probate court, but it’s never, ever enforced.
Nevada has a process for deeming parties as vexatious litigants. See Jordan v. Dept. of Motor Vehicles. PS: To my opposing counsel who keep referring John Luckett to our firm, you are not funny.

John Luckett calls my firm several times a month.
Reminds me of my several interactions with Ron von Felden.
It’s not shocking to me. I get a few f those a week through ECF.
laugh all you want, if this filing was instead a speech at Boyd, half of the faculty would start clapping at the conclusion of it.
No cap.
Not good enough to Bernie Sander RFK Jr. right off the Democratic nomination, now they are trying to Ralph Nader him off the ballot. Will our judges tolerate such blatant election interference?

Well there is no question that election interference is a real thing, even as directed at RFK, Jr. But NRS 298.109 seems to be pretty clear on the VP matter.
Either way, now that he has named a VP candidate, he can now easily get the signatures again and get on the ballot before August 9, 2024.
Maybe he can hire a certain GOP candidate for AG to claim that plain statutes aren’t really clear and/or it wasn’t RFK’s responsibllility to understand them.
Just because he/his legal team missed the boat, doe not rule out the fact that he is being railroaded to not be on the ballots.
