Howard Rosenberg

The Reno Gazette-Journal is reporting that University Regent Howard Rosenberg is not likely to appeal the term-limits case that recently removed him from the ballot.

"I am considering it, but I probably won't," Rosenberg said. "My attorney (Bill Bilyeu) will talk me out of it.

"It's a question of money, number one. Number two, it would be counterproductive. The waters are already muddy enough."

It's amazing how much more sense they make when they decide not to run, isn't it?

University of Nevada Regent Howard Rosenberg is weighing a challenge to last week’s Nevada Supreme Court ruling that he and 20 other elected officials in the state are not allowed to run for re-election this fall, the AP is reporting.

"I am angry. I am hurt. I just think what's been done is wrong," said Rosenberg "This business of selectively applying what they call the law is really annoying."

Aside from Rosenberg, those removed from the ballot include Clark County Commissioner Bruce Woodbury and several state school and town board members.

The court, however, ruled separately that 13 other lawmakers elected in 1996 are allowed to run for re-election this year.
