5. Who is the prosecutor?

The Nye County District Attorney’s Office prosecutes criminal- as well as traffic cases in Beatty, Nevada. There D.A. does not have an office in Beatty. Instead, it has offices at:

1520 E. Basin Avenue
Pahrump, NV 89041
(775) 751-7080

and

101 Radar Road
Tonopah, NV 89049
(775) 482-8166

Located midway between Las Vegas and Tonopah, the population of Beatty, Nevada, is only a thousand people. But its location off the US 95 and proximity to Death Valley keep its police busy flagging down alleged drunk drivers and speeders.

6. What are common Beatty crimes?

Due to being near the US 95 and Death Valley, Beatty Justice court hears several DUI and speeding (NRS 484B.600) matters. Other common cases involve battery (NRS 200.481), drug offenses, and battery domestic violence (NRS 200.485).

7. Can charges get dismissed?

Depending on the case, the D.A. may be amenable to reducing or even dismissing criminal charges – especially if the defendant’s attorney can show prosecutors that there is a reasonable doubt as to guilt. First-time offenders in low-level cases are the most likely to get their cases dismissed, usually in exchange for a fine or community service.
