Attorney Tudor Chirila was to have made an initial appearance Monday in Reno Justice Court.

But both sides agreed to dismiss the charges. "We dismissed the case and are not pursuing it," said Assistant District Attorney John Helzer. "We don't think there's a case there worth pursuing." Chirila, 50, fully cooperated "to try and get the whole thing taken care of and cleared up," said his attorney, Ed Basl. "They (the district attorney's office) completed the investigation. Everybody was in agreement that this case should not have been filed, should be dismissed, in fact, should be dismissed with prejudice, and it was, and the records were sealed," Basl said.

The charges grew out of allegations of what happened May 23 at a Reno apartment complex. Chirila lost in the primary election last year in his bid to unseat incumbent Nevada Supreme Court Justice Robert Rose. For one news story, Chirila was interviewed from a Carson City jail cell, where he had been sent for not paying child support. Future: Former Sen. Paul Laxalt envisions a new begining for location.
