In the Las Vegas Township, Battery Domestic Violence cases will now be heard by one judge. An administrative order was signed on January 11, 2011 by Chief Las Vegas Township Justice Court Judge Karen Bennett-Haron which created specialty courts in the Las Vegas Township Justice Court for Domestic Violence and DUI cases. Pursuant to this order, Judge Melisa Saragosa will hear a segregated caseload of Domestic Violence cases. This change will affect the defense Battery Domestic Violence cases in the Las Vegas valley. There are certain strategies in cases that will not work as well because Battery Domestic Violence cases are now centralized in one court. It becomes more important than ever to retain a counselor who is familiar with the new procedures in this court, the judge herself, and the prosecutors.
