As demolition plans progress and the old jail is removed from the District Court building, two Churchill County departments have temporarily relocated while the work is done.

The 10th District Court is now located on the first floor of the Justice Court building at 71 North Maine Street (the white 1903 building with the columns out front), at the corner of Williams Ave. The phone number remains (775) 423-6088 while in the temporary location. Inquiries to the District Court may also be emailed to [email protected]. Filing hours for the District Court remain weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with the exception of holidays. 

The Court Services department has temporarily moved to 151 N. Maine Street, filling the extra space in the Public Defender’s office. Court Services’ phone number is (775) 423-4222. Morning testing will still be conducted in the Justice Court building, weekdays from 8 to 8:30 a.m. 

Churchill County would like to thank the community for understanding as the county works to better serve its citizens.

The memories remain of a soft-spoken, seemingly unassuming but determined individual who absolutely knew what path she wanted to take in life, and followed it. Her instinctive reactions, which highlighted her steadfast level of love and caring for her family, friends and all living things found in nature, hold lessons for us all. An unexpected splash of her self-deprecating humor, coupled with uncanny timing, will always bring a smile. For me, Marie lives on in the sighting of a Black-crowned night heron in the tules, the bloom of a beautiful spring flower and, most poetically, in the struggle of wildlife photographers handling their very large camera lenses.

Her dad Ted was my dad's brother. I never knew Ted or Betty, but I wish I did. I am 73 and live in IL. I am building my family tree and see where Betty has fit in. Blessings to you Curt and family.
