The Nevada Supreme Court has clarified the powers of Judges serving in Clark County Family Court. In Landreth v. Malik, the Court held that Judges serving in family court have power equal to Judges serving in the general District Court. Family Court Judges, by way of serving in Family Court, are the only District Court Judges authorized to hear legal matters dealing with domestic relations.
This decision, which was not unanimous, will likely create confusion and initial dispute as to what types of matters may be brought within the Clark County Family Court.
