The Nevada Policy Research Institute’s, “Center for Justice and Constitutional Litigation” has filed suit against Republican State Senator Heidi Gansert, for violation of Nevada’s constitutional Separation of Powers clause. Representing plaintiff Doug French, CJCL sued alleging Gansert is in violation of Article 3, Section 1 of Nevada’s State Constitution. French seeks the position currently held by Ms. Gansert at the Nevada System of Higher Education. CJCL Director Joseph Becker says “Gansert’s continued employment in the state’s executive branch, as Executive Director of External Relations for the University of Nevada, Reno, puts her in direct violation of Nevada’s Separation of Powers clause.” The position French wants is not open.
