Nevada's law requires courts to collect money or other benefits from covered gambling crimes for the state's general fund, alongside other penalties.
People who commit covered gambling crimes must pay the state the value of benefits from those crimes, including total receipts. Courts order this payment alongside other penalties.
Knowingly accepting prohibited bets through communications from someone physically in Nevada carries a gross misdemeanor penalty. A legal exception applies, and the rule also reaches people outside Nevada.
Courts must order people to pay the value of money or other benefits from covered gambling crimes to the State Treasurer. The requirement covers certain willful unlicensed gambling offenses, covered cheating and related gambling offenses, and prohibited acceptance of bets through communications. The payment also applies to repeat cheating offenses and the prohibited bets described below. The payment includes total receipts from the crime, not just profits, and goes into the state's general fund alongside other penalties. Licensed operators who add or publicly display games or slot machines without required licenses and approval fall under a separate penalty exception.
People who violate the covered betting rules face a gross misdemeanor, a crime more serious than a misdemeanor. The rule covers accepting bets through communications from someone physically in Nevada, or allowing a tenant, agent, or employee to accept them. People outside Nevada can also be prosecuted in Nevada. The conduct must be knowing. An exception in NRS 465.094 applies, but its terms are not provided. Courts must also order payment of profits, total receipts, or other benefits from the violation to the state's general fund.
