HOW IS IT THAT NOEL WATERS CAN BE A PRO TEMPORE WHILE PRACTICING AT LIONEL, SAWYER & COLLINS? Their website describes themselves as "the largest private lawfirm in Nevada.....with a history of partners coming from powerful governmental positions......as a result of our extensive involvement in the Nevada, legal, POLITICAL, and business communities, we are in a unique position to assist......" Yeah, I'd say Noel Waters is in a "UNIQUE" position alright. Nothing like having a sitting judge with political aspirations embedded in the largest lawfirm in Nevada.
