A competitor's challenge to garner information concerning the casino's ownership was unanimously declined.
The board unanimously voted that while Stadium Casino LLC can act as an intervening party in the licensing process, it can do so only on a limited basis and cannot request ownership discovery.
Mark Aronchick, a Philadelphia-based attorney representing Stadium Casino, LLC, argued that Providence, R.I.-based Bally’s Corp. and other investors not previously licensed by the PCGB were recruited by Lubert after he submitted a winning bid of $10 million for the State College mini-casino license in September 2020.
Aronchick noted the strong community opposition to the mini-casino and told board members that SC Gaming’s licensure will likely wind up delayed for two years in Commonwealth Court lawsuits and, ultimately, state Supreme Court lawsuits. Aronchick said the licensure of Sugar House Rivers Casino in Philadelphia was delayed in similar fashion.
Kastenberg said a comprehensive investigation report will be provided concerning SC Gaming’s ownership. He added that the owner’s eligibility must, by statute, be decided by the board and that Stadium has no extraordinary basis for an unprecedented role in seeking discovery.
