The judge granted the bloated appellate brief. Since the DA didn't object, that sealed the matter. I give my perspectives on the reasons why the DA didn't object, and what might be on the judge's mind. None of this is legal advice. No attorney-client relationship is created or intended. This is for entertainment only and cannot be relied upon. I am not a licensed Nevada attorney, and am merely commenting on a public issue.
