This profession is so out there that nothing surprises any anymore. I have judges who are so nuts they ignore the law. Opposing counsel who will do anything to win. Judges who will make shit up to make you look bad. So, when I hear about a judge going after an attorney, it is every day normal in the Las Vegas legal community.

Anyone else part of Crockett's calendar this morning and hear the annihilation in the Amy Sugden v. Brian Padgett case? Crockett gave a soliloquy about how many times Padgett has been in contempt of the court's orders, how many times Padgett has come up with excuses and how many second chances Crockett had given Padgett because Padgett promised that he would never miss another hearing. Padgett was obviously not in attendance. In the end, Crockett told Plaintiff's counsel that she could continue to participate or not participate because this matter was now between the Court and Mr. Padgett. It has gotten uglier than what you find left at last call.
Crockett is awful. Doesn't entertain any oral argument then proceeds to recite a long speech which indicates that 1) he has not read the pleadings and is missing key facts, and 2) he does not understand the law.

How sad are you – that you dedicated your life to this bullshit profession?
Yeah, well 20+ here and I still say that I should've went to dental school.

Nevada has been a great place to live and work. Sure schools are bad but my kids turned out ok. I'm fortunate to have had more good days than bad despite the staggering migration of California to Nevada. I have about 3000 more hours to bill and then I'm done G*d willing. Probably move to Wyoming or Montana and remember the good old days.
It's true the schools are some of the worst in America, but there are several ways to circumvent that. Move to one of the few areas in the valley with decent schools (Summerlin, Centennial, Henderson). Charter Schools. Magnet/Tech Schools. Private schools. With minimal efforts, any parent that gives half a damn can keep their kids out of the CCSD hellscape.
Its parental neglect to rely on CCSD alone to educate your spawn. My 4 all turned out fine (as did I and my 4 siblings), college educated and self sufficient. Nothing promotes parental success like self sufficient adult kids who don't need anything from you except to be around to watch and spoil the G-Kids.

Trump is bringing Tony Bobulinski (former Hunter Biden business associate who confirmed NY post texts/emails of JOE's corruption) as his special guest to the debate tonight. Even for POTUS, this is some epic trolling.
Oh, was that the same Bobulinski that the WSJ said didn't provide any evidence that Biden did anything? Hell, that the venture never did anything?
"The venture—set up in 2017 after Mr. Biden left the vice presidency and before his presidential campaign—never received proposed funds from the Chinese company or completed any deals, according to people familiar with the matter. Corporate records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show no role for Joe Biden."
Yep. Really damning stuff there.

This Trump troll never gets tired of stroking his master's shriveled up old pole…
Anyone have any thoughts on the Voldemort lawsuit against Metro?
Huh? What? Voldemort against Metro? What the hell is that supposed to mean?
He Who Must Not Be Named vs. the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
If we have to tell you, then that takes all the mystery out of it.
Case No?

Is Padgett out on bail? Or is he still in jail? I don't enjoy watching lawyer trainwrecks. So ugly. You hate to see it.
I am going to miss Crockett. A great judge.

Just as well this as some other bs profession.
Not sad at all. I've had a great 42 years.

Fact: It is parental negligence to send your kids to CCSD.

It is difficult for me to comprehend how anyone can but love Trump.
. . . butt love Trump?
