“In recognition of his substantial contributions to the Nevada judiciary over the past 30 years, the Nevada Supreme Court is pleased to have ordered that the Las Vegas Courthouse will be officially named the James W. Hardesty courthouse effective upon Justice Hardesty’s retirement from the Supreme Court.
“Although this order and announcement were unfortunately delayed due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Court feels that the naming of the courthouse in which Justice Hardesty played such an integral role in creating is timely and consistent with all legal requirements associated with naming considerations. “This order serves as an expression of gratitude for Justice Hardesty’s service and dedication to the State of Nevada and its court system.”
