(Las Vegas Now). Both sides will file written closing arguments with the Commission. (Review-Journal) But rather than go out with a whimper, Judge Halverson managed to create controversy again on Friday when she claimed that she had subpoenaed eight District Court Judges to be witnesses and all failed to show. (Review-Journal) The attorney for the Clark County courts, Jillian Prieto, appeared and stated Halverson failed to give proper notice and was lying to the Commission.
Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Sun has attempted to add up the cost of giving Judge Halverson her due process and came up with a figure of $200,000. (Las Vegas Sun)
