Nevada Code § 1.4657

Required actions upon receipt of complaint; letter of caution
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. The Commission shall, in accordance
with its procedural rules, examine each complaint that it receives to determine
whether the complaint alleges objectively verifiable evidence from which a
reasonable inference could be drawn that a judge committed misconduct or is
incapacitated.
2. If the Commission determines that a
complaint does not contain such allegations, the Commission shall dismiss the
complaint with or without a letter of caution. A letter of caution is not a
form of discipline. The Commission may consider a letter of caution when
deciding the appropriate action to be taken on a subsequent complaint against a
judge unless the letter of caution is not relevant to the misconduct alleged in
the subsequent complaint.
3. If the Commission determines that a
complaint does contain such allegations, the Commission shall authorize further
investigation.
