Overview

The Nevada Judicial Historical Society (NVJHS) is a non-profit 501(3)(c) organization founded in 1988. The society is dedicated to the preservation and better understanding of the history of Nevada's judiciary and bar. The society is governed by a board of 15 trustees who serve three year terms; officers are elected from within the board.
