On December 30, 2022, the Eighth Judicial District Court issued amended Administrative Order (AO) 22-14.

According to the order, “The purpose of this Administrative Order is threefold:

  1. Primarily, Nevada’s 2022 General Election yielded several new judges in District Court. As a result, department caseloads and courtroom relocations require reassignment.
  2. Secondly, the District Court has determined that the establishment of a “Professional Negligence/Medical Malpractice Court” (“Med Mal Court”) will improve efficiency, and thus creates one.
  3. Lastly, procedures for probate matters are clarified for more effective case management.”

For more information, including a detailed list of court and case reassignments, see AO 22-14.
