What was said

1:06:19 The non-technologically pros would go to that department with a liaison with the person who deals with individuals like that.

1:06:33 Like I said, when I get in there, I'm going to see what programs are needed. You know, dealing with the people who work there and getting input from them is important, important, important. And that's what's going to be my guide. >> Thank you. Candidate Shapiro? >> Yes, one of the things that I plan on doing when I am in office is talking to all the individual staff, finding out where is there a need. One of the things that I would obviously is which I talked about is implementing the lawyer of the week. Or the lawyer of the day program depending on funding. A lot of that would be with volunteer lawyers. And then implementing a dispute resolution where the judges can send cases to mediation. Or we can implement where they have to go to mediation first. How this would be funding would be private. There is also legal aid, federal grants, and state grants that you can use to fund.

1:07:32 And then of course, there is your funding from the county budget as well. But I think there's so many opportunities and so many grants and programs that are out there that have not been touched. >> Thank you. Candidate Shapiro, please explain your experience with accounting systems such as that required to accurately track monies collected by the clerk's office for court related fees and fines. >> Well, in my professional business, running my Shapiro mediation, I use QuickBooks, and that was our accounting process. Most of these programs are pretty fairly user friendly and easy to use. Just like I've had to learn a lot of things from creating websites to learning QuickBooks, I feel very confident that whatever system that the courts use, I would be able to figure it out.

1:08:27 And if not, then I would use their, all these programs have a tutorial on how to figure it out. So the information is there and it's out there. And I have no problem feeling that I could figure out their accounting system here in Clark County. >> Thank you. Candidate Gray?
