District Judge Elizabeth Halverson's hearing has ended today after the judge suffered a hypoglycemic problem after spending the morning on the witness stand.
The suspended judge was being cared for by Las Vegas Convention Center security guards.
Halverson is undergoing a quasi-judicial disciplinary hearing this week after she was suspended from the bench in July 2007. The Judicial Discipline Commission filed a 14-count complaint against Halverson accusing her of staff mistreatment, improper communications with jurors during trials and falling asleep on the bench.
The 50-year-old judge has denied the charges.
