FDIC sets out to seize Nevada GOP U.S. House candidate's assets

Source: Las Vegas Sun

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. made a move Wednesday to start seizing Nevada assets from congressional candidate Danny Tarkanian and members of his family toward a $17 million judgment, apparently put in motion because Tarkanian missed a key deadline to file an objection.

In a court filing first reported by political journalist Jon Ralston, lawyers for the FDIC stated that Tarkanian had missed a mutually agreed upon Oct. 8 deadline to file documents opposing the FDIC’s claim to his property in Nevada.

Not filing any objection on time counts as a forfeit, the FDIC argued, clearing the way for them to start seizing Tarkanian’s property after the next scheduled court hearing on Oct. 22.

... Tarkanian is running as a Republican against Democrat and former Nevada Senate Majority Leader Steven Horsford to be the inaugural representative of Nevada’s 4th Congressional District. Horsford’s campaign also declined comment Wednesday.
