Clark County, Nevada

In Nevada, service to country doesn’t end when the uniform comes off—and no one embodies that truth more powerfully than Clark County District Court Judge Mary Perry.
Judge Perry is the only military veteran serving on the Eighth Judicial District Court bench, the busiest court in Nevada. In a state with more than 330,000 military veterans, her presence on the bench is not just symbolic—it is essential.
Veterans understand sacrifice.
Veterans understand accountability.
Veterans understand leadership under pressure.
Judge Mary Perry brings all of that—and more—into every courtroom she enters.
A Veteran’s Perspective Where It Matters Most:
Courtrooms shape lives. Families, careers, futures, and freedoms are decided there every day. Having a judge who has lived a life of discipline, duty, and service brings a perspective that cannot be taught—it must be lived.
Judge Perry knows what it means to serve something bigger than herself. She understands the chain of command, fairness, responsibility, and the consequences of decisions. Those values translate directly into balance and integrity on the bench.
For Nevada’s veterans—and their families—her service sends a clear message:
You are seen.
You are represented.
You matter.
Representation Isn’t a Buzzword—It’s Reality:
More than 330,000 veterans call Nevada home. They live in our neighborhoods, attend our churches, coach our kids’ teams, and contribute daily to our communities. Yet representation of veterans in high-level public service—especially in the judiciary—remains rare.
Judge Mary Perry changes that.
She stands as proof that veterans don’t just defend the Constitution—they continue to protect it from the bench, ensuring justice is delivered fairly, lawfully, and without fear or favor.
Service After Service:
Military service instills a lifelong commitment to mission. For Judge Perry, that mission did not end when she left active duty—it evolved.
Today, her mission is justice. Her battlefield is the courtroom. Her oath is to the Constitution and the people of Nevada.
At a time when public trust in institutions matters more than ever, having a veteran judge—someone trained to lead with honor and accountability—is not just valuable; it is vital.
Why It Matters:
Veterans understand the weight of decisions. They know that leadership means standing firm, doing the hard thing, and putting people before politics. Judge Mary Perry brings that mindset to the Eighth Judicial District every single day.
Nevada’s veterans deserve representation.
Nevada’s families deserve experience.
Nevada’s courts deserve leaders who have already proven their commitment to service.
Judge Mary Perry is not just a judge. She is a veteran. She is a leader.
And she is proof that service never stops.
