Division 52. AMUSEMENTS |
Chapter 52-3. CARDROOMS |
§ 52-3.901. Cardroom license.
(a)
Notice. The board may suspend or revoke a cardroom license at any time, after giving the licensee(s) reasonable notice of opportunity to be heard in defense against noticed charges.
(b)
Upon notification to the county from the state that a licensee's state gambling license has expired, or been suspended or revoked, the licensee's license under this chapter is immediately suspended and shall be revoked.
(c)
Cause. Any violation of requirements in, or pursuant to, this chapter is cause for suspension or revocation.
(d)
Effect. Neither suspension nor revocation affects any fee already due or paid, nor does it extend the life of any license. A revoked license is voided, and cannot be transferred, reinstated, renewed or re-issued; but a suspended license may be reinstated as a valid license upon such conditions as the board may impose, in its discretion under this chapter, including penalty fees not exceeding ordinary fees for a new license. Such board actions are additional to, and not a limitation on, other civil and criminal proceedings under this code or state law.
