Commission: Halverson to be removed from bench
Elizabeth Halverson, the Las Vegas Judge, was removed from the bench today. Click here.
Judge Halverson has been in the news of late. Initially the mobile chair bound woman was seen in the Clark County courthouse as a clerk. She ran and won for Judge and immediatley started making news.
She was accused of sleeping on the bench during trial; of Inappropriately talking with jurors without counsel present and eating lunch with jurors.
She was the subject of a public nuisance complaint brought by her neighbors. She was ordered to clean up her yard. Of most recent, Judge Halverson, was the subject of a beating by her husband requiriing hospitalization. She is bringing charges against him.
Voters hopefully learned to pay attention to issues involving the candidates they vote for. This certainly was not a good choice and I do not think any would who voted would disagree with that.
Good luck to Judge Halverson.
