Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Nevada law, the Attorney General's Office has primary jurisdiction for
investigating and prosecuting complaints alleging violations of the Nevada Open
Meeting Law, chapter 241 of the Nevada Revised Statutes.
This office has received four complaints alleging violations of the Open Meeting
Law at a Special Meeting of the Board of Regents (Board) held on November 17, 2003,
and the continuance of the Special Meeting of the Board to November 20, 2003. 1 The
alleged violations of the Open Meeting Law are as follows: 2
1 Regent Mark Alden has submitted two additional complaints - one on December 1, 2003,
alleging that certain Regents privately discussed disciplinary action against certain UCCSN employees
and came to a decision regarding the actions taken at the November 20, 2003 special meeting of the
Board prior to that meeting, and a second stemming from the UCCSN meeting of December 12, 2003,
alleging that the chair of the Audit Committee violated the Open Meeting Law by discussing certain
persons who were not noticed pursuant to NRS 241.033. These complaints are currently being
investigated by our office, and separate determinations are forthcoming.
