This extraordinary expos© of corruption and intrigue in the Nevada legal profession and judiciary tells the true story of the Whitehead Case, the longest and most controversial case in the history of the Nevada Supreme Court. The tale begins with the efforts by the political enemies of Nevada district court judge Jerry Carr Whitehead to eliminate him from the bench.
When the Nevada Supreme Court issued an order to the Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline to temporarily halt further illegal actions against Judge Whitehead, the reaction of the Discipline Commission's members and the state's Attorney General (with the aid of the state's largest newspaper) was swift and furious retaliation.
Whitehead Revisited reads like a John Grisham legal thriller. When the panel of judges in the Whitehead Case appointed a Special Master to investigate numerous violations of the court's orders, he soon uncovered an elaborate conspiracy, orchestrated by members of a prominent Nevada law firm, to eliminate Justices Charles Springer and Thomas Steffen from the Nevada Supreme Court -- and to replace them with justices more "friendly" to the firm.
Attempts to unlawfully intervene in the Whitehead Case in order to stop the investigation were then made by three other Nevada Supreme Court justices (two of whom had been disqualifed from the case) and the Attorney General - all of whom were on the Special Master's list of prime suspects in his investigation of this nefarious plot to stack the Nevada Supreme Court.
