Followup Roundup

Happy Friday! We have a little potpourri of followup stories for you today:

First, remember our friend Chuck? Well, it turns out Chuck is stupid.

Only two days after the LV Sun published their story regarding his fraudulent activities, Chuck fell for an undercover sting that caught him in the act of practicing law without a license. From the LV Sun:
Tuesday’s sting was conducted after the Nevada State Bar asked police to investigate Radosevich for allegedly passing himself off as a licensed lawyer. He has never been one in Nevada and he was disbarred in Colorado and Nebraska.

Two Metro detectives posing as a couple went to Radosevich and asked him for legal help. The detectives paid Radosevich $200 for the services they requested and then disclosed their true identities and cited him.
Attaboy Chuck! If at first you don't succeed ...

Next, the LV Sun is reporting that our old friend Ed Miley was a member of the State Bar's disciplinary board at the time he choked his dog to death while beating his hot wife in front of their children and firing a handgun in his backyard.

The money quote regarding the matter came from attorney Jeffrey Albregts, chairman of the Southern Nevada board, who said:
I don’t intend to appoint him to anymore disciplinary panels, I don’t think that would be beneficial or fair to everyone involved in those processes.
Good call, Jeff. We've additionally learned that Ed was the "model attorney" chosen to give last year's Bridge The Gap presentation on criminal law. Don't suppose he covered DV or cruelty to animals, did he?

According to the LV Sun, Ed is scheduled to emerge from rehab at the end of the month, and his arraignment in Las Vegas Justice Court has been put off until December 1st.

--------------------

Finally, it looks like Judge Cadish may have some competition for that empty U.S. District Court seat. The LV Sun is reporting that Chief Deputy District Attorney Gloria Navarro is on that same "short list" to fill the seat.

Navarro currently works in the district attorney's civil division, and before that she was a deputy special public defender.

Perhaps most importantly, however, she is a she.

  2. I was at least year's 'Bridging the Gap' and Ed talked about how interesting his job was dealing with strippers and prostitutes, and how his gorgeous wife was a judge, etc. He seemed to emphasize the salacious nature of a criminal defense attorney.

    If that wasn't a great example of foreshadowing I don't know what is.

  3. Gloria Navarro is not and has never been even a decent attorney - I would think we'd want better in Federal court.

    This blog just loves piling on Steffy and Randy. Great! Keep it up!

  5. So - your telling us that Ed Miley was a member of the State Bar's disciplinary board when he attacked his wife and KILLED his dog?

    No problem, so we now know why he won't have his license taken away for a FELONY for killing his dog. He is in the "Q".

    Who in their right minds would have had him on the board anyway? Did they actually MEET him before they appointed him? Or was it just because his wife got him this job like she gets him all of his jobs?

    No wonder no one trusts the system anymore....

  6. Besides being incredibly abrasive as opposing counsel, Navarro showed an amazing ability to take simple issues and complicate them beyond her understanding. She really should be a judge.

  8. Navarro is no different from Jessie Walsh - a n'er-do-well lawyer who had a few government jobs and deciede she wants to be a judge. In fact, I think the two of them used to share office space years ago.
