A second lawsuit was recently brought against a Missouri slot machine company, alleging violations of the state’s gambling laws. The lawsuit, filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, contends that the defendant, Oasis Gaming, Inc., has operated an unlawful slot machine business in the state without a valid gaming license.
The plaintiffs, B. Alan Johnson, Jr. and Gary Gambino, allege that Oasis Gaming has operated a network of slot machines across Missouri without a valid gaming license since at least 2013. The plaintiffs argue that the company’s unlawful operation of slot machines has caused financial harm to them, as well as other potential players, due to the “unfair and illegal gambling practices” employed by Oasis Gaming.
The complaint further alleges that Oasis Gaming has employed illicit tactics in order to conceal its unlawful activities, including the use of deceptive advertising, the production of false documentation, and the avoidance of taxes and fees required by state law. Additionally, the plaintiffs claim that Oasis Gaming has skirted state regulations by operating its slot machines in locations not approved by the Missouri Gaming Commission.
The lawsuit seeks both compensatory and punitive damages, as well as a permanent injunction against Oasis Gaming to prevent it from continuing to operate an illegal slot machine business. The plaintiffs also demand an accounting of the company’s profits, as well as a disgorgement of any ill-gotten gains.
This is the second lawsuit filed against Oasis Gaming in recent months. In March, a similar suit was brought in federal court, alleging similar violations of Missouri’s gambling laws.
The present suit follows a number of enforcement actions taken by the Missouri Gaming Commission against the company in recent years. In 2017, the Commission imposed a $2.5 million fine against Oasis Gaming for operating an illegal slot machine business. The Commission also issued a cease and desist order against the company, which it is currently appealing.
The latest lawsuit against Oasis Gaming is yet another indication of the state’s commitment to upholding its gambling laws. By bringing this suit, the plaintiffs hope to recover the damages they have incurred as a result of the company’s illegal activities, and to prevent Oasis Gaming from continuing to operate an unlawful slot machine business in Missouri.

This is the second such lawsuit against Oasis Gaming in recent months, following a series of enforcement actions taken by the Missouri Gaming Commission against the company. The plaintiffs’ lawsuit is demonstrative of the state’s stringent enforcement of its gambling laws, and serves as a warning to other companies engaging in similar activities.
