Nevada Supreme Court hears term limits arguments; severs legislator case from others
Yesterday, the Supreme Court heard the term limits arguments yesterday.
Today, the court ordered the three cases it had previously consolidated deconsolidated. See Order Deconsolidating Docket No. 51802 from Docket Nos. 51768 and 51798. Child v. Lomax – the case attacking Barbara Buckley’s candidacy, has been severed from Sisolak v. Lomax, the attack on Woodbury’s candidacy, and Miller v. Burk the AG’s case attacking various candidacies.
This could indicate a different outcome for the legislators who served in 1996 than for other "public officials."
Meanwhile, here are some of the news reports on yesterday's arguments.
