Read the full explanation
_____ money or thing of value that was paid to a voluntarily excluded person. The bill makes it a simple misdemeanor for a voluntarily excluded person to refuse to forfeit money or a thing of value obtained as a result of wagers made by the person after the person has been voluntarily excluded, and directs that a court of jurisdiction shall order the voluntarily excluded person to pay an amount equivalent to the obtained money or thing of value to the state general fund. The bill allows entities licensed by the state racing and gaming commission to retain an amount equal to the lesser of percent or $100 of winnings withheld from a collection entity debtor. A “collection entity” means the department of administrative services and any other public agency that maintains a separate accounting system and elects to establish a debt collection setoff procedure for the collection of debts owed to the public agency.
