Casinos Sue Man for Gambling Debts

[slotfeaver]

it would seem that this man has made a habit or rather a very consistent habit of coning casinos in to taking markers that are not valid and now he wants to file bankruptcy to get out of paying the debts to a number of casinos and the casinos are blocking this to force him to pay for the debts

Caesars Entertainment Corp. of Las Vegas is suing another bankrupt customer, charging he signed gambling markers at four casinos totaling $140,247 that turned out to be worthless.

The complaint was filed this month in the California bankruptcy case of Du Chan Trinh of San Diego, who filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in that city Oct. 12.

An attorney for Caesars charged in the complaint that Trinh had signed the markers -- check-like negotiable instruments -- to gamble in Las Vegas at Caesars' properties the Rio, Planet Hollywood and Paris Las Vegas; and at Harrah's Rincon Casino & Resort in Valley Center, Calif., in the San Diego area.

The complaint says the markers were signed between June 26 and Sept. 10, but were later returned unpaid by banks including Guaranty Bank in Westminster, Calif., and GBC International Bank in Monterey Park, Calif., with the checks marked "account closed.

What amazes me is that this man did this also in 2008, 2009, and 2010 and just kept it up. And what about the casinos? Shouldnt they have had something in place that would have told them that he was a bad risk?

The casinos should have a data base that they can all go into that includes the names of everyone that has given bad markers to any of the casinos in the past to keep this from being an ongoing thing.

And, why dont people get jailed for this, you do if you pass bad checks and this is basically the same principle.
