A. The board shall by regulation provide for the establishment of a list of persons who are to be excluded or ejected from a gaming establishment. The list may include any person whose presence in the gaming establishment is determined by the board to pose a threat to the public interest or licensed gaming activities.

B. In making the determination in Subsection A of this section, the board may consider a:

(1) prior conviction for a crime that is a felony under state or federal law, a crime involving moral turpitude or a violation of the gaming laws of any jurisdiction;

(2) violation or conspiracy to violate the provisions of the Gaming Control Act relating to:

(a) the failure to disclose an interest in a gaming activity for which the person must obtain a license; or

(b) willful evasion of fees or taxes;

(3) notorious or unsavory reputation that would adversely affect public confidence and trust that the gaming industry is free from criminal or corruptive influences; or

(4) written order of any other governmental agency in this state or any other state that authorizes the exclusion or ejection of the person from an establishment at which gaming is conducted.

C. A gaming operator licensee has the right, without a list established by the board, to exclude or eject a person from its gaming establishment who poses a threat to the public interest or for any business reason.

D. Race, color, creed, national origin or ancestry, age, disability or sex shall not be grounds for placing the name of a person on the list or for exclusion or ejection under Subsection A or C of this section.
