Jeffrey Bertucci challenges Illinois Gaming Board’s video gambling licence revocation
Jeffrey Bertucci sued the Illinois Gaming Board in Cook County court on 5 August, seeking to keep his diner’s video gambling licence while the case proceeds. He argues the revocation is unlawful because he has no criminal conviction; the Board voted to revoke the licence after overruling an administrative judge’s recommendation that it remain in place.
The lawsuit tests the Gaming Board’s licence revocation after it rejected an administrative judge’s recommendation to retain it.
