Chief Judge T. Arthur Richie, Jr announced today that Medical/Dental Malpractice Status Checks will be scheduled for August 4 and 5, 2009 at the Complex Litigation Center, 333 South Sixth Street in Las Vegas.
The status checks will take place between 9 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. each day and will include scheduling for the upcoming November 2009 Medical/Dental Malpractice Settlement Conference Marathon.
The November Settlement Marathon will focus on 131 cases out of compliance with the requirements of NRS 41A. The court intends to make a significant and meaningful attempt to resolve these cases during these settlement conferences.
The Nevada Supreme Court has approved the assignment of Senior Judges to conduct the November Settlement Marathon. A similar marathon between May and June 2009 allowed the court to settle 37 pending cases, which released 75 judicial trial days to take other cases to trial.
