Section 42-7A-42 - Multiple types of licenses prohibited. - South Dakota Statutes

42-7A-42. Multiple types of licenses prohibited. A video lottery machine manufacturer may not be licensed as a video lottery machine operator or own, manage, or control a licensed establishment. A video lottery machine distributor may not be licensed as a video lottery machine operator or own, manage, or control a licensed establishment. A video lottery machine operator may not be licensed as a video lottery machine manufacturer or distributor. An owner or manager of a licensed establishment may not be licensed as a video lottery machine manufacturer or distributor. Nothing in this section restricts an owner or manager of a licensed establishment from owning video lottery machines licensed under § 42-7A-41 and placing such machines on the premises, provided they meet the same requirements of video machine operators. However, nothing in this section prohibits the commission, after prior notice to all licensed video lottery machine operators, from authorizing the placement of video lottery machines by a manufacturer in an establishment that satisfactorily demonstrates that it is otherwise unable to obtain appropriate machine placement or service.
