Constitutional Crisis

Published April 14, 2010 at 5:00 AM PDT

The war between Gov. Jim Gibbons and Attorney-General Catherine Cortez Masto is escalating. He wanted her to sue. She said no. Then he got his own lawyer and now the Attorney-General says the governor can't just go and get his own lawyer because it breaches state law. We try and sort out this crisis by looking at how much of it is really political and where it's likely to go from this stand-off.
