Legal Question in Criminal Law in Nevada

Re: Trespass warning

I am not licensed to practice law in Nevada, but I have been avidly reading a book by Nevada attorney Bob Nersesian called "Beat The Players." In the book, Nersesian describes in detail Nevada casinos' practices which range from being 86ed (informally asked to leave) to being read the Trespass Act. He goes into great detail about the legal issue you raised, which is, is a comp offer an invitation to the property such as to invalidate your being 86ed or Trespassed. From the facts you stated, you would be wise to have the invitation letter with you (and a copy in a safe place at home) when and if you check in. Read the Nersesian book for cases in which casino patrons have collected large verdicts and settlements for false arrest and imprisonment. You can buy a copy through bj21. com .

Re: Trespass warning

Since the casino is private it can 86 you from any of its properties based on your misconduct at one of them. It may not, but it can.

Re: Trespass warning

I think you're really asking two different questions: whether the ejection at Casino A will make you a trespasser at Casino B as soon as you arrive; and wehther Casino B can decide while you are there to make you leave due to the prior ejection from Casino A. I don't know whether Nevada has any special rules about such things, but under the general legal principles followed by most states the answer to the first question is no and the answer to the second is yes.

You posted this question under criminal law, but you should understand that going to Casino B will not be a crime. If they do tell you to leave and you do so, you should not have any legal problems.

Re: Trespass warning

I cannot see how you could run into any problems by checking into the other casino. Were you even told you were to stay away from the other casino by the people in the first casino? Did they tell you the two casinos have the same owner? I imagine not . . .
