IN BRIEF


Libel suit against
journal dismissed

A judge dismissed a libel suit Wednesday brought by a Henderson
developer who claimed a story in the Las Vegas Business Press
substantially damaged his company and his reputation.
The July 1995 article focused on lawsuits filed against Steven
Rebeil and his real estate company, Gem Homes. Most of the lawsuits
were filed by subcontractors, the article claimed.
Rebeil claimed that reporter Paula Yakubik did not thoroughly
research the story and printed several inaccurate facts.
"I think the article was substantially true," said District
Judge Stephen Huffaker, noting Yakubik used "reasonable efforts to
check the facts."
Rebeil was the original developer of The Reserve, a Safari-
themed casino under construction in Henderson that he sold to
Ameristar Casinos Inc.
