MISSOURI GAMING COMMISSION > Voluntary Exclusions
Short Summary
The provided legal document content pertains to the Voluntary Exclusions rule under the Missouri Code of State Regulations, specifically within the Department of Public Safety and the Missouri Gaming Commission. The rule allows Disassociated Persons, who are on the List of Disassociated Persons, to enter an excursion gambling boat for the purposes of carrying out the duties of their employment or to apply for employment. However, prior notification to the commission is required, along with providing a reason for their employment or application requiring their presence on the excursion gambling boat. If the Disassociated Person’s employment requires regular presence on the excursion gambling boat, they must notify the commission accordingly. The authority for this rule is derived from sections 313.004 and 313.805 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri. The rule also outlines the procedure for individuals to apply for placement on the Missouri Gaming Commission’s List of Disassociated Persons. To be placed on the list, individuals must file an Application for Placement on the List, pledging not to visit licensed excursion gambling boats. By filing the application, the person acknowledges being a problem gambler and agrees to be placed on the List for life. The commission is not authorized to remove a person from the List, except as provided in 11 CSR 45-17.060. The applicant’s information may be used by licensees to notify their affiliated gaming operations about the applicant’s problem gambling status, potentially resulting in exclusion from casinos in other jurisdictions. The application requires various personal information, including full name, physical description, contact details, social security number, date of birth, statement of being a problem gambler, photograph, occupation, place of employment, interpreter information (if applicable), and any other necessary information as deemed by the commission. The application must be verified and reviewed by the executive director of the commission. Additionally, the applicant must execute a Waiver/Release form releasing the commission, all Class A and B licensees, and their affiliates and agents from any liability associated with acts or omissions relating to the provisions of 11 CSR 45-17 et seq. The rule also establishes procedures for the entry of names onto the List of Disassociated Persons and the disclosure of such placement to Class B licensees, licensed fantasy sports contest operators, and their agents and employees. If an applicant does not qualify for placement, they are notified accordingly. The rule also provides a procedure for former Disassociated Persons to re-establish their self-exclusion on the List, resulting in permanent placement with no option for removal. The Missouri Gaming Commission emphasizes that this self-exclusion is for life and there is no process for removal from the List.
