Nevada Supreme Court hears Sands’ appeal of decision to keep judge on case
The wrongful termination dispute between Las Vegas Sands Corp. and former Sands Macau executive Steven Jacobs returned to the Nevada Supreme Court for a fresh round of arguments Tuesday.
As in past appeals, the issue was Sands’ ongoing effort to have Clark County District Judge Elizabeth Gonzalez removed from the case, which she has overseen since it was filed by Jacobs in 2010.
Famed attorney Alan Dershowitz, representing Sands, challenged Clark County Chief Judge David Barker’s recent denial of the company’s motion to assign the case to a different judge. Sands has long argued that Gonzalez has treated the company unfairly.
On Tuesday, Dershowitz argued that Barker didn’t give enough attention to Sands’ contention that Gonzalez acted improperly and displayed bias against the company during a brief interview with Time magazine in January.
