Marilyn’s Priorities Are
-
The foundation of our judicial system is public trust. I am committed to restoring the Family Court's reputation by bringing fairness and transparency back to the bench. By treating every individual with dignity and making the judicial process clear and accessible, we can ensure that "justice" isn't just a word, but a standard that every Las Vegas family experiences when they walk into the courtroom.
-
Justice delayed is justice denied, especially when children and family stability are at stake. It is unacceptable for families to wait six months or more for critical divorce and custody decisions. I will prioritize streamlining cases and modernizing trial calendars to eliminate unnecessary wait times, ensuring that families receive the resolutions they need to move forward with their lives.
-
No two families are the same, and a "one-size-fits-all" approach to the law often fails in the real world. I am dedicated to crafting practical, tailored court orders that reflect the unique needs and schedules of Las Vegas residents. By moving away from cookie-cutter rulings, we can create enforceable solutions that actually work for parents and children in our community.
