Special Master Jason Guinasso filed his extensive Special Master’s Report at 3:14 PM on July 17, 2020.

Introduction

Pursuant to NRCP 53, WDCR 24, and WDCR 25, the Honorable Judge Barry L. Breslow appointed the undersigned Special Master for the limited purpose of fact gathering, investigation, assessment of the process of the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation (DETR) responding to claims for unemployment and pandemic-related benefits, and providing answers to specific questions the Court presented. The matter came before the Court via a First Amended Ex Parte Motion for an Order to Show Cause Why Writ of Mandamus Should Not Issue filed by Petitioners on June 22, 2020. On June 24, 2020 this Court issued an Order to Show Cause Why Writ of Mandamus Should Not Issue. After briefing and a hearing, the Court identified several issues requiring further investigation before the Court renders a decision.1

As a threshold matter, a Special Master’s duty is to the Court. He is not an advocate for or against any party or interest in this matter. The Special Master’s mandate in this matter is to provide the Court with information so that the Court can make competent legal conclusions and well-informed equitable decisions. The Special Master is not the decision maker.

What Our Clients Say

I am so pleased with this law firm and their expertise and assistance in my class action case. We worked together for 3 1/2 years, they were always responsive, helpful and reassuring if I had any questions or concerns. They have also received multiple calls from other members of the class action and have been responsive to those calls coming in too. I never for one moment had any complaints whatsoever and would highly recommend them to anyone.

So in regards to the people of Nevada vs DETR, Mark is a non-stop, guns blazing, no BS kind of attorney. This guy just doesn't back down. I'd hate to be on the wrong end of a lawsuit facing this firm. To the people who are concerned that they aren't being heard, you must realize the absolute burden that every individual case adds to the class action. I haven't had my calls or emails returned, even offered to pay for a face to face consultation, and still no response, and that's okay... I also understand that I am just one of thousands of people with the same issue. Thank you mark for representing the people of this state, and not giving into DETR's BS. Keep up the amazing work!

Great firm to deal with. Listened to all aspects of our case and was able to come out with a positive ruling. Highly recommend them to anyone out there needing help with a class action suit.
