Nevada Supreme Court Summaries

The Court determined (1) the charge of misdemeanor reckless driving, NRS ยง 484B.653(1)(a) is a lesser included offense of felony eluding a police officer, NRS 484B.550(3)(b) and thus, (2) the appellant may not be punished for both crimes because the Double Jeopardy Clause prohibits such conviction.
