Washoe County idiots. Northern NV so I’m going to venture a guess that even the Dems on the commission call themselves “fiscally conservative,” but instead of housing the homeless for a fraction of the price, we’re going to put them in jail where we have to feed them, treat them, transport them, and guard them. And let’s not forget the court costs: judges, lawyers, clerks, and marshals don’t come cheap. The cruelty is the point.
San Fransiso [sic] doesn’t have a model. 12:06 is correct. The Salt Lake model is the true reference, but Salt Lake lost funding from their GOP controlled legislature and slid backwards. I’d prefer homeless folks got services and were off the street and possibly even able to get to a point where they could get jobs and work than see community members caught up in an endless cycle of misery and abuse. Not only is it the morally correct thing to do, but it’s better for the community and it saves a whole lot of money. Emergency and criminal justice services are incredibly expensive whereas a tiny apartment and a social worker are more affordable and effective. And there’s less poop on the streets downtown. Win-Win.
Not Nevada, but have you ever seen someone file something accusing the judge of impropriety after losing a motion? This California lawyer does it basically every time she loses.
So the “preserve rural Las Vegas” activists are at it again. Barely a handful of residents oppose this massive boon to their community and property values by using tired and debunked arguments about traffic and light pollution to support their cause. Their media page is even supported by an overtly disgruntled and decidedly anti-mormon set of podcasters.
Why waste your time? This is happening whether we like it or not. Personally, I am happy with the massive inflation to my home’s value and if I wanted actual 2024 “rural”, I would move to an actual “rural area” like Kyle Canyon and call it a day.
One of the reasons I love Las Vegas is that, compared to the rest of the country, we are pretty good at avoiding dumb culture wars and religious conflict. Some of the comments I’m seeing online aren’t shocking for their content (references to “magic underwear” and “cult” are not new) but because it’s coming from Las Vegans.

Surprised no comments on 25 years for SBF. Like they always say, if you are going to steal money, steal life changing money
10 years in federal prison – she won’t try anything like that again

That guy was a practicing ob/gyn here for 30 years, and elsewhere for many years before that. He delivered thousands of babies. What are the chances he only did this twice?
The petition to reopen the doctors estate does not appear to be very well thought out. From Paragraph 10: “As Petitioners learned of the existence of claims against the Estate after it was
fully administered and discharged, Petitioners request the Court reopen the Estate pursuant to
NRS Chapter 151.”
Except that the re-opening statutes, NRS 151.240-260, only address a very narrow set of circumstances to re-open an estate and discovering that you are a creditor isn’t one of them. These creditors, as sympathetic as their story may be, are absolutely time barred by NRS 147. Fontano will swat this away quickly, and will be justifiably annoyed. Sturman will then adopt the RAR.
But that’s not the end of the procedural headscratchers. The Plaintiffs have actually filed an A-Case (A-24-889839-C) against the Estate – which hasn’t been (and won’t be) reopened. You can’t file an A-Case against an Estate. Even if the Plaintiffs weren’t barred by the reopening statutes, you can’t file suit against an estate before you present a claim, and that claim is rejected. Plaintiffs can’t file a claim because the creditor period ran many years ago. The time bar on non claim statutes is absolute.
In my opinion, either Plaintiffs counsel didn’t bother to do research on NRS 147 and NRS 151.240-260, or they did and plowed forward anyway. Either way, these pleadings are arguably sanctionable. It will be interesting to watch this hearing in probate court.
That’s all news to me, which is exactly why I would consult with a probate specialist before filing a case like this. And how would you ever get a dime out of an estate that was distributed and closed eight years ago? Unless there is some kind of still-viable vicarious liability claim out there, it is hard to see how this will garner anything other than publicity. Lots of Millenials in town may be out doing genetic testing though. If he did it twice then who knows how many others are out there. What a sicko.

Salt Lake did this and had massive success.
Truth. Every model shows it.

You were so quick to “sic” 12:01’s post that you “sic’d”.
San Fransiso [sic].
LMFAO!
Other that this little ditty
TL:DR.
Oof 12:01, that’s rough….

Nobody GAF.
My only comment is I think his sentence shows that Elizabeth Holmes got off too easy.
There is no such thing as money.
Word on street is Telles framed SBF to take attention off his case.
Hahahahaha!
That’s a hell of a psyop.

There was a TV show called Almost Family (2019-2020) with this exact fact pattern as its basis.
Roughly zero.
