ORDERS:
CONSENT ORDER
This matter was initiated by a citation issued by the South Carolina Department of Revenue
("Department") and South Carolina Law Enforcement Division ("SLED") against Respondent for
violation of the Vide Game Machines Act [S.C. Code Ann. Section 12-21-2791) (Supp. 1996)]. On
December 18, 1996, Respondent was cited for paying out more than $125.00 to a player in a twenty-four hour period. A Department Determination was issued sustaining the imposition of the violation.
The determination sought a $500.00 monetary penalty.
A hearing on the matter was scheduled for April 1, 1998. Prior to the hearing, the parties
resolved the matter. That agreement is incorporated into this Order.
The agreement between the parties is as follows:
1. Respondent admits that on December 18, 1996, they paid out more than $125.00 to
a player in a twenty-four period in violation of Section 12-21-2791. Respondent further agrees to
remit to the Department a monetary fine in the amount of $500.00 no later than April 10, 1998, at
5:00 p.m.
2. The Department agrees to accept the above terms in satisfaction of this violation.
I find the above terms to be fair and equitable, approve such terms, and hereby Order its
adoption. As the parities no longer require a hearing on this matter, I also Order this matter
Dismissed with Prejudice.
