Judge Steven Jones finally goes before the Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline today. Among those expected to testify are Judge Jennifer Togliatti and former D.A. David Roger. [RJ]
One of our anonymous commenters was quoted in a Las Vegas Sun article about Judge Kathleen Delaney’s green robe and her basset hound decor.
The Supreme Court of Nevada issued several opinions last week. One of those reversed a conviction because the prosecution showed a powerpoint slide that had the defendant’s booking photo with the word “GUILTY” across it. [RJ]
In a split decision that came back to the Court after a trip to the U.S. Supreme Court, the Court upheld the Ethics Commission’s censure of a councilman. [RJ]
The Court also held that sealed juvenile delinquency records cannot be used in subsequent proceedings. [RJ]
The Court also issued an opinion reinforcing Nevada’s shield law for journalists. [RJ]
Is the Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline hearing public? It should be some great theater. Jimmerson cross-examining David Roger would be worth watching.
Jones has absolutely no shame.

Anyone have the inside scoop as to the language of the stipulation ..
Burning Man is exempt from the festival fee, BM pays $$$ to Pershing County, depending on the total amount of the population allowed under its BLM permit, BM pays for the prosecution of any Cat. A felonies, the County gives up its right to enforce state law if it is also regulated by the BLM permit (alcohol use and presence of children are specifically mentioned), BM releases its claims against Pershing County but not Judge Wagner, and the U.S. District Ct. retains jurisdiction over the settlement for 10 years.
It's available as an exhibit to the Stip. of Dismissal, docket entry #96.
does she really think Bailey did something unethical? How can an experienced reporter not understand the role of an attorney?

I believe Gentry might have had some personal experience with the justice system if one can believe a reference on the old Wild Wild Law Blog and Terry Mosely connection.
