North Dakota OTB sues NYRA over settlement payout dispute
Posted on Tuesday, February 20th, 2007
In a lawsuit filed in New York, a North Dakota off-track horse betting outlet accuses the New York Racing Association of failing to pay off winning bets by illegally including owed pari-mutuel payouts in its bankruptcy creditor list.
Lien Games Racing said NYRA violated New York law by not protecting pari-mutuel funds it owed the Fargo, North Dakota, company. Lien Games is suing NYRA for $1,634,303.97 for money owed on winning wagers on NYRA races placed at the outlet.
In its November filing in United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York, NYRA lists a debt of $1,386,695 owed to Lien Games. Lien Games filed its lawsuit in the same court on February 6.
