Hollywood Talent Broker Faces Charges in Nevada

A talent broker who's been convicted two times for deceptive business practices in California now has a Nevada warrant for his arrest. He allegedly accepted thousands of dollars from parents with the promise he'd give their children an opportunity to become a star but never delivered. He's presently on probation in California.

There are different types of Nevada warrants including arrest warrants, bench warrants, and search warrants. An arrest warrant issues when authorities believe someone has committed a crime, and the judge agrees there's sufficient "probable cause" to grant the warrant. A bench warrant issues when a criminal case is already in process and the judge believes the defendant isn't complying with court orders.

A search warrant is a type of Nevada warrant where the law enforcement seizes property, not people, they believe is connected to criminal activity. Police need to abide by the Fourth Amendment in executing the search warrant. If they don't, the defendant may ask the judge to suppress any evidence found as a result of this illegal search.
