Clark County is also reverting to its previous mask requirements and is now requiring all Clark County employees to wear a mask when in common or public areas in Clark County facilities.... For the health and safety of all, members of the public must wear face coverings that cover their noses and mouths. Face coverings must be worn at all times while in any Court facility and while in any security screening line to enter a Court facility.... All District Court judges and employees must cover their noses and mouths with face coverings while at work unless they are alone in unshared work space.... All attorneys, vendors, and employees of any organization or entity who work in a Court facility must cover their noses and mouths with face coverings while in any common areas... Face coverings must be worn regardless of vaccination status. This order takes effect upon filing and shall be reviewed no later than every 30 days and shall remain in effect until modified or rescinded by a subsequent order.
