Text: Walker complains that the crime he is charged with occurred in a county other than Washoe and therefore he cannot be tried in Washoe. In Walker v. State, 78 Nev. 463, 472, 376 P.2d 137, 141 (1962), the venue was questioned and decided. We conclude, therefore, that venue could properly be laid in Washoe County.    There is no question concerning the jurisdiction of the Washoe County court. The law of a first appeal is the law of the case on all subsequent appeals in which the facts are substantially the same. State v. Loveless, 62 Nev. 312, 150 P.2d 1015 (1944); Graves v. State, 84 Nev. 262, 439 P.2d 476 (1968). The facts at the second trial were substantially the same; therefore we find no merit in appellant's contention.
