Happy Nevada Day! Hopefully those of you stuck in the office are enjoying a slow day. Here’s a little something to talk about.
On November 5, 2018, there will be a public hearing regarding ADKT 0499. As you may recall, ADKT 0499 deals with the CLE Board. About a dozen comments were filed. One that you might be interested in was the comment submitted by Board of Governors president Richard Pocker. It proposes an alternate governance model where the CLE board would be folded into and become employees of the State Bar of Nevada. Anyone see any issues with this?
why in the world do we have a MCLE board ? Suck it into the SBN and save the $
SBN has its own CLE courses that are a profit center (not that the members get the benefit of that-just more fancy buildings and faraway conventions). If SBN both sells CLE and regulates it, you can be sure that more cost-efficient CLE providers will be driven out.
All the more reason to separate bar regulatory functions from trade association functions.
Save money? Have you witnessed anything that has occurred under Kim Farmer? Nothing is cheaper under her reign. OBC functions are spending more money now than ever. LRE? A bottomless hole of money. No really, split the bar regulatory functions (OBC/CLE) away from SBN.
