To what extent is a Licensed Gaming Establishment civilly

for maintaining security upon its own premises?
Especially relevant in view of general reluctance to pay out W2G-

made in full public view . . .
Good questions but best answered by a plaintiff lawyer in Nevada
rather than
being the subject of speculation upon this board.

IMO, very definitely a proper topic for discussion on VPFREE. With a
view toward avoidance of future problems. Should it develop that
casinos are NOT responsible for maintaining security within their
parking facilities, patrons might want to re-consider whether, and
under what circumstances, they are willing to use such facilitie
If you don't get the answer from an Nevada attorney what good is a
discussion on this board without having the legal answers. Without a qualified legal
opinion the discussion is mere speculation.
Unless a VP member who happens to be an attorney (preferably a Nevada
lawyer) offers their professional opine on this question we can't know what the
reality is. How are laymen to asses negligent responsibility in a casino
situation? I am sure there is a considerable body of applicable state rulings that
any PI lawyer would have memorized.
You may choose to avoid such a casino based on your feelings which may be
well placed.
