Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - Commission Chairman Marilyn Kirkpatrick and Commissioner William McCurdy II are hosting the North Las Vegas Bench Warrant Quashing & Resource Fair from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. this Saturday at the North Las Vegas Justice Court, 2428 N. Martin L. King Boulevard (northeast corner of MLK and Carey).

Residents with outstanding bench warrants in North Las Vegas Justice Court or North Las Vegas Municipal Court may be able to have their warrants resolved during the event, and anyone with issues in other local courts will be able to get free legal advice on their case.

The fair will also have information about sealing eviction records, sealing criminal records and job training.

“Sometimes relatively minor legal troubles significantly impact a person’s ability to get a job or a place to live,” Chairman Kirkpatrick said. “We want to help people take care of their legal issues and get their lives back on track.”

Registration is not required, and the resource fair is free to attend.
