Bear-trapping interference case appealed

The 30-day jail sentence for one of two women involved with tampering with a bear trap in Incline Village is being appealed.

Incline Village Justice of the Peace E. Alan Tiras sentenced Season Morrison, 35, of Reno earlier this month to 30 days in jail.

Her mother, Cheryl Morrison, 63, of Truckee received a suspended sentence, fine, community service.

They were convicted in May.

Their attorney, Bradley Paul Elley, has filed an appeal in Morrison’s case.

“Obviously I and my clients are upset with the decision and that’s why I’m appealing,” Elley told the Reno Gazette-Journal.
