The Commission may issue an emergency order for suspension, limitation or conditioning of a license, registration, finding of suitability, pari-mutuel license or prior approval, or may issue an emergency order requiring a licensed gaming establishment to keep an individual licensee from the premises of the licensed gaming establishment or not to pay such licensee any remuneration for services or any profits, income or accruals on the investment of the licensee in the licensed gaming establishment in the following manner:
1. An emergency order may be issued only when the Commission believes that:
(a) There has been a violation of subsection 2 of NRS 463.360 or NRS 465.083;
(b) Such action is necessary to prevent a violation of NRS 465.083;
(c) There has been a violation of subsection 1 of NRS 463.160; or
(d) Such action is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, morals, good order or general welfare.
2. The emergency order must set forth the grounds upon which it is issued, including a statement of facts constituting the alleged emergency necessitating such action.
3. An emergency order may be issued only with the approval of and upon signature by not less than three members of the Commission.
4. The emergency order is effective immediately upon issuance and service upon the licensee or registered agent of the licensee or, in cases involving registrations, findings of suitability, pari-mutuel licenses or any prior approval, upon issuance and service upon the person or entity involved or registered agent of the entity involved. The emergency order may suspend, limit, condition or take other action in relation to the license of one or more persons in an operation without affecting other individual licensees or the licensed gaming establishment. The emergency order remains effective until further order of the Commission or final disposition of the case.
