EXHIBIT 99.1

For Immediate Release

         Chadmoore Continues Its Analysis Of Appropriate Reserve Amount

Las Vegas, NV - April 9, 2002 - Chadmoore Wireless Group, Inc., a dissolved
Colorado corporation-2002 (the "Company"), announced that, at the direction of
its Board of Directors, it is continuing the process of determining, with the
assistance of its auditors and tax and litigation counsel, the amount of the
reserves required under Colorado law to be set aside to cover creditor claims,
potential claims stemming from pending litigation, and federal and state tax
liabilities. The accurate determination of these amounts is crucial because if
the total amount of the reserves is not sufficient to cover all valid claims and
shareholders have received a distribution of cash, shareholders may be liable to
any creditors with a valid unpaid claim up to the amount of any distributions
received. Ongoing analysis includes a determination of the amount of the
Company's usable historical net operating losses, the amount of its state tax
liability, if any, as a result of the cash sale of its assets, the determination
of adequate reserves for potential liabilities for currently pending litigation
matters, and a sufficient reserve for contingent and unknown liabilities. The
Company hopes to complete its analysis shortly but the timing is dependent on
the Company's receipt and review of the results of analyses being provided by
the Company's various professionals. The Company firmly believes it is important
to take all actions reasonably necessary to determine the appropriate reserve
amounts under Colorado law.

Following the final determination of appropriate reserve amounts, the Company
will commence the initial distribution of cash to the Company's shareholders of
record as of the dissolution date. Absent any substantial unforeseen additional
liabilities, the total distribution per share is expected to be consistent with
the amounts outlined in the Company's proxy statement filed in connection with
its asset sale to Nextel and the approval of its plan of liquidation.
