UPDATE: I neglected to link to this
front page (and quite lengthy) article in today's LA Times:
"In Las Vegas, They're Playing With a Stacked Judicial Deck." The
subhead: "Some judges routinely rule in cases involving friends, former
clients and business associates -- and in favor of lawyers who fill
their campaign coffers."
