WESLEY K. DUNCAN ADAM PAUL LAXALT ‘Attorney General Firat Aatstant Attorney General NICHOLAS A. TRUTANICH Chef ef Sah Ketan D. Bhirad STATE OF NEVADA ‘General Counsel OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL 100 North Carson Street Carson City, Nevada 89701 May 16, 2017 Assemblywoman Maggie Carlton Nevada State Legislature Carson City, Nevada Dear Assemblywoman Carlton, 1am writing to follow up on my letters from yesterday. Now that a transcript of the audio recording has been made public, I want to reaffirm my willingness to participate in a fair and nonpartisan hearing relating to the Gaming Control Board and NRS 463. As you are undoubtedly aware, the gradual piecemeal and selective dissemination of materials related to Chairman Burnett's recording of our conversation has resulted in multiple inaccurate and speculative stories. The transcript of the recording, finally made public only this morning, contradicts the false narrative. As I have said from the beginning, this matter was handled just like other issues I encounter on a daily basis, and, as is often the case, this matter was resolved according to client preferences based on sound legal reasoning. I look forward to assisting members of the joint committee (and the public) with their understanding. With that in mind, to ensure that the meeting is not predicated on an inaccurate and one-sided perspective, hopefully we can agree that I be allowed 15 minutes to deliver an opening statement before responding to questions. Because the drafting of Assembly Bill 513 appears to be predicated on the misconception of events that have been publicly reported, I think it would be most reasonable to hear my perspective after Chairman Burnett further illuminates his version of events concerning the request made to the Gc. ‘Assemblywoman Maggie Carlson Page 2 May 16, 2017 As a courtesy, please let me know if you disagree with this proposed approach. Sincerely, Lao ADAM P. LAXALT ‘Attorney General Ce: Senate Majority Leader Aaron D. Ford ‘Assembly Speaker Jason Frierson Senate Minority Leader Michael Roberson Majority Floor Leader Paul Anderson
