Affected: IC 4-38-4-6; IC 4-38-6-7; IC 4-38-7-4
Sec. 4.
(a) After the commission receives a completed application, an application fee, and, for a vendor or sports wagering service provider applicant, an agreement or statement of intent indicating that a licensee or licensee applicant will utilize the applicant for the provision of goods and services, the commission shall obtain the applicant's fingerprints at a time and place directed by the executive director.(b) If the application or a criminal history check completed by an enforcement agent, or both, reveals that the applicant:(1) has not been convicted of a felony under Indiana law, the laws of any other state, or the laws of the United States; or(2) meets the statutory criteria set forth in IC 4-38; the commission may issue the applicant a temporary license.(c) The temporary license shall: (1) be on a form prescribed by the commission; and(2) meet the specifications set forth in section 6 of this rule.(d) An applicant who receives a temporary license may offer sports wagering related goods and services until: (1) a permanent license is issued; or(2) the temporary license is withdrawn.(e) A temporary license shall not be transferred.(f) If an applicant fails to provide or ceases providing a licensee with goods or services, the applicant shall: (1) advise the commission immediately; and(2) return the temporary license to the commission. Failure to advise the commission that the applicant has failed to begin or has ceased providing a licensee with goods and services is grounds for the commission to withdraw the temporary license and deny licensure in the future.
(g) Procedures for the withdrawal of a temporary supplier's license include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) The executive director, upon written notice to the applicant and the licensee who has signed a statement of intent, may withdraw a temporary license if the executive director determines that the background investigation reveals that the applicant is not suitable for licensure.(2) If an applicant's temporary license is withdrawn, the applicant shall not be permitted to provide any licensee with any sports wagering goods or services.(3) If the executive director withdraws an applicant's temporary license, the executive director shall immediately forward the application to the commission for commission action.(4) The applicant may seek to voluntarily withdraw its application for a license in accordance with this rule before the commission acts in response to a withdrawal of the applicant's temporary license.(h) An applicant must comply with all requests for information, documents, or other materials relating to the applicant and the application during the temporary license period, during which time the commission will conduct its investigation.Indiana Gaming Commission; 68 IAC 27-2-4; filed 6/25/2021, 2:59 p.m.: 20210721-IR-068200420FRA
