Nevada to Halverson: Go Away and Never Come Back

Elizabeth Halverson small Judge Elizabeth Halverson Liz Halverson Above the Law blog.JPGThe Nevada Judicial Discipline Commission has done a great public service. They have collected all of the faults of (former) Judge Elizabeth Halverson into one 28-page document.

The commission found:

No employee, even those inured to a judge’s mercurial temperament and foul mouth should have to experience what Judge Halverson made her immediate staff live and work through on a routine basis.

Halverson — who maintains her innocence — has 15 days to appeal the decision.

Could this be the end of the public’s fascination with Judge Halverson? Unlikely.

But what is she going to do now? She’s going to need food, shelter, and most likely a pliant slave with massage expertise. Any ideas on an alternative career for ATL’s favorite judge?

They just loaded Halverson onto a flatbed for her cross country journey to DC to begin her stint as a GULC professor. Her class on the rights of food will start in January.

Halverson's revenge = Halverson actually eating any and all NYC bonuses and then giving Rodgy Cohen a big fat Halverson steamer on his chest.

Elie have you ever considered buying the Halverson-endorsed Little Rascal Scooter? It would enable you to walk from your computer to the vending machine without losing your breath.

Maybe she can contact those Somali pirates about obtaining that tanker for shelter. A ship of that size is almost large enough to house her and store her food.

29,

Except for the fact that, completely predictably, he screwed up the quote, which is "Leave now and never come back." Good thing I was already sitting down, or someone would have had to pick me up off the floor.

Actually saw her in person at the Trader Joe's when visiting some family in LV. She is huge, but not as huge as I would have expected. Her red-faced slob of a husband was there pushing the cart. He gave off a real aura of loserdom.

Dear 45: What was her total tab at Trader Joes and what was in the cart?

I am thinking five figures and that she mainly bought macaroons.

From the series of tell us what you really think...

"The evidence makes it clear tha thaving been thrown a proverbial rope by the chief judge that could have been used to save her form professionally drowinign in her own sea of inexperience as a litigator, her lack of technical knowledge in the area of criminal trial procedure an dher limited and stilted interpersonal skills, Judge Halverson chose not to grab onto the rope. Instead, she chose to sink and she chose to try to pull the distrct court down with her."
