St Charles County prosecutor sets 1 April deadline for gambling machines
St Charles County Prosecutor Joseph McCulloch said businesses must remove gambling machines by 1 April 2026 or face legal action, following a court ruling on their legality. Torch Electronics said litigation is ongoing and that it will appeal any adverse findings; St Louis County is also considering liquor-licence revocations for premises that retain the machines.
Missouri businesses hosting the machines face a stated removal deadline and potential legal action, while the dispute remains under litigation.
