Shake Up At The RJC

It seems that some of our district court judges are getting tired of their civil-only calendars, so some older more experienced judges are learning to share. According to lvcourtsblog, a redistribution of civil and criminal caseloads goes into effect today, the following departments are affected:

• Dept. 4, Judge Kathy Hardcastle, who will now have a mixed civil/criminal calendar.
• Dept. 7, Judge Linda Bell, who will now have a mixed civil/criminal calendar.
• Dept. 14, Judge Donald Mosley, who will now have a mixed criminal/mortgage foreclosure review calendar.
• Dept. 15, Judge Abbi Silver, who will now have a mixed civil/criminal calendar.

Wow. One of these things is not like the other, no? Mortgage foreclosures for The Don? Say it ain't so!

Is someone trying to send a message here? Hasn't Mosely had a criminal-only calendar since, well ... powdered wig times?

So, for those of you who practice before these judges, how do you feel about this?
