Work card subject of suit

Friday, Oct. 6, 2000 | 11:15 a.m.

A Clark County resident who had his work card revoked when he filed for a special private investigator work card has filed suit in Clark County District Court.

Moises A. Flores has asked the court to reverse a decision by the Clark County Business Licensing division and Metro to revoke his work card.

Officials said they took the work card away when a routine computer check determined Flores had been convicted of possession of stolen property. They said applicants convicted of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude may not be employed as security agents.

But Flores' suit argues that the Nevada Legislature repealed the statute on which the denial was based.

A county spokesman said the agency has a policy to not comment on pending litigation.
