InfoBackground: Gale, a longtime Las Vegas attorney, earned his law degree in 1987 from the University of San Diego. He is divorced and has an adult daughter. (His brother, Jeff, is married to Janie Greenspun Gale, the sister of Sun publisher Brian Greenspun.)

Political experience: A Democrat, he has run several times for Clark County judicial positions. This is his first bid for a city council seat. "I live in Ward 2 and the position became available. I thought maybe I could be of some benefit on the Las Vegas City Council and to the citizens of Ward 2," Gale said. Last summer, Gale was among 16 attorneys who applied to fill the seat formerly held by Clark County Judge Jackie Glass, who resigned to host the CBS television program "Swift Justice." He ran in 2011 for the Department 5 judge's seat on the Las Vegas Municipal Court. He also applied for an appointment to the District Court's Department 20 seat in 2010. He has also run for district judge seats in 2010, 2008 and 2006.

Professional experience: Gale has had a private law practice in Las Vegas for more than 23 years and, before that, was a certified public accountant for seven years. Gale currently serves as a district court judge pro tempore, an arbitrator of the Nevada Court Annexed Arbitration Program, a mediator for the Nevada Foreclosure Mediation Program and is a former Small Claims Court referee.
