LAS VEGAS — The Las Vegas Review-Journal filed a motion Tuesday seeking an emergency restraining order to preclude authorities from immediately searching the personal devices of slain investigative reporter Jeff German.
“The Review-Journal has been advised by the Government that they are taking the position they may proceed with searching the devices if the parties do not otherwise reach agreement by 5:00 p.m. today, which they have been unable to do,” the motion sates.
The newspaper also filed a motion Tuesday demanding that a third-party help review German’s devices, and that his information be returned to the Review-Journal following the review process. The newspaper is being represented by attorneys Joel Tasca, Ashley Kissinger, Kennison Lay, David Chesnoff and Richard Schonfeld.
