Cliven Bundy again denied the right to the attorney of his choice.
Nevada’s chief federal judge Tuesday for the second time refused to let nationally known conservative lawyer Larry Klayman join Cliven Bundy’s defense team.
In a two-page order, Gloria Navarro said she will not allow Klayman into the high-profile criminal case until he can give her proof that “ethical disciplinary proceedings” against him in Washington, D.C., have been resolved in his favor.
Klayman, the founder of the Washington-based public interest groups Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, is known for his tenacious pursuit of litigation, mostly in support of a wide range of conservative and libertarian issues.
He filed a petition to enter the Bundy case last month, but Navarro denied his request, questioning his candidness with her about the outcome of the disciplinary proceedings.
His troubles with the Washington bar stemmed from three separate alleged conflicts of interest in litigation involving Judicial Watch after he left the organization as its legal counsel, according to court documents.
Last month, Navarro said she would reconsider letting Klayman into the case if he provided her with the proper documentation of the case’s resolution.

Mr. Bundy i doubt if you can get a fair trial anywhere in America as long as that traitor and harry Reid are in power..
Are you insane? Seriously. What kind of drugs do you have to take to think like that. Or are you just mentally lacking?
So much for right to a fair and speedy trial with fair representation. I understand he’s still held in solitary confinement only released 1 1/2 hours a day to shower, use phone, clean cell, speak to attorney, wrk on his defense. He’s being treated as a convicted killer when he’s never been proven guilty of a crime.
Yeah, outside of sucking off of the government teat to feed his cattle and handing the bill to us all, he’s done nothing.
Poor baby. He’s a complete scumbag. He doesn’t get rights no one else does.
