Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. No interest subject to the jurisdiction
of the Nevada Gaming Control Act may be transferred to any heir or devisee from
probate until the heir or devisee has received all approvals necessary to hold
or own such an interest from the Nevada Gaming Commission.
2. Such an heir or devisee must seek all
such necessary approvals through the filing of all appropriate applications
with the Nevada Gaming Control Board within 1 year after the interest becomes
subject to probate or within such later period as the Chair of the Board
determines in his or her sole and absolute discretion.
3. If any such heir or devisee fails to
file full and complete applications for all such necessary approvals within 1
year after the interest becomes subject to probate or within such later period
as the Chair of the Board determines, or if the Commission denies any
application for such necessary approvals:
(a) The court shall immediately order that an
appraisal of the interest must be conducted by two independent appraisers, one
of whom must have experience appraising gaming assets. The costs of both
appraisals must be paid by the estate.
(b) Within 30 days after receipt of both
appraisals, the court shall offer and the entity in which the interest exists
shall purchase the interest for cash at fair market value as determined by the
court based upon the appraisals conducted pursuant to paragraph (a). The
Commission may deem a failure to purchase the interest as offered to be a
voluntary surrender of any gaming license, registration or approval held by the
entity in which the interest exists.
