Affected: IC 4-38
Sec. 21.
(a) A sports wagering registrant shall at all times conduct himself or herself in a manner that does not compromise the integrity of sports wagering in Indiana, tarnish the image and reputation of the state of Indiana, or reflect poorly on an Indiana sports wagering operator. In making this determination, the commission may consider the following:(2) Suspension of licenses or registration certificates, or their equivalent, or any other adverse actions in other jurisdictions.(3) Associations with businesses and individuals.(4) Compliance with sports wagering laws and regulations in Indiana and other jurisdictions.(5) Any other factors related to the integrity of sports wagering in Indiana as the commission deems appropriate.(b) A certificate of registration does not create a property right, but is a revocable privilege granted by the state contingent upon continuing suitability for registration. If the commission determines that a sports wagering registrant is no longer suitable, the commission may initiate a disciplinary action to revoke, restrict, or suspend the certificate of registration or take such other action as the commission deems necessary, including action upon the sports wagering operator.(c) If the commission finds a sports wagering registrant to be unsuitable, the registration is subject to cancellation. A sports wagering operator shall, upon written notification of a finding of unsuitability, immediately terminate all relationships, direct or indirect, with such sports wagering registrant. No determination of suitability of a sports wagering registrant shall preclude a later determination by the commission of unsuitability. A registrant who is served with a revocation, suspension, or monetary penalty under this article may request a hearing under 68 IAC 7.(d) Sports wagering registrants have a continuing duty to notify the commission of any change in information previously submitted to the commission. Written notification must be submitted within ten (10) calendar days of the change or the occurrence of the event. Upon notification that a registrant is no longer doing business in Indiana, the entity's registration shall cease. The registrant shall be required to reapply if the registrant resumes business operations in Indiana.Indiana Gaming Commission; 68 IAC 27-2-21; filed 6/25/2021, 2:59 p.m.: 20210721-IR-068200420FRA
