Applications are due by 5 p.m. Sept. 14 and must be submitted to the Administration Office of the Courts, 408 E. Clark Ave., in Las Vegas, or 201 S. Carson St., Suite 201, in Carson City. Interviews are scheduled for Oct. 22-23 and will be open to the public at the Nevada Supreme Court in downtown Las Vegas.
After performing background checks and conducting interviews, the commission will nominate three finalists, whose names will be sent to the governor for appointment.
