Station Casinos Inc. Begins Lawsuit
Thursday, October 21st, 2010It seems that there is finally some direct conflict taking place between online casinos and land based casinos within the heart of Las Vegas. Although the reports are relatively new and the details are little worry, it seems that one of the powerhouse land based casino operators located in Las Vegas, Station Casinos Inc. has launched a very serious loss against two different online casino gambling websites. One of these gambling sites is based in Britain and the lawsuit was filed in the district court within the US located in the state of Nevada earlier this past week. The allegations involve the two sites using Station Casinos Inc. trademarks while at the same time directing customers away from their business.
With the dramatic rise in fall of land based casino operations throughout the United States and all around the world, it makes sense that they would try to fire back against online casinos for taking a huge chunk of their business. Even though we are still suffering through a blistering and seemingly endless economic recession, it cannot be discounted that Internet casino business is desperately pull the carpet out from under many formerly thriving land based casino businesses.
This most recent lawsuit involves S.L. Enterprises and Ryan Murphy. It’ll be interesting to see how this lawsuit develops as we move forward into the future. This could be a very important case for other issues or conflicts that develop in the ambling industry further on. Apparently some controversy involves how much these casino operations or payouts to the winners of their jackpot prizes. It will be interesting to see how the courts handle this particular scenario.
