Failure to Pay a Casino Marker Is a Felony in Nevada
When you borrow money in a casino by signing a marker and then fail to pay the casino, you can be charged with a felony under Nevada state law. Failing to pay a casino marker is analogous under the law to writing a bad check. Not only will you face civil financial penalties, but you can also be charged in criminal court with a felony. The Christiansen Trial Lawyers has extensive experience representing individuals, in the Las Vegas area, who have defaulted on their casino markers.
