Tiguas dispute court's ruling to shut down slots and sweepstakes
August 10, 2008
EL PASO - Tigua governor Frank Paiz said the Speaking Rock center is not
breaking Texas gambling laws despite a state district judge's ruling last week.
State District Judge Harry Hudspeth ruled that the tribe is violating a 2001
order to cease gambling operations by offering gift cards as prizes and ordered
a fine of $500 per day until it stopped.
However, Paiz said Friday they stopped using the gift cards last year. "As of
July 2008, the tribe has not operated these types of machines nor issued credit
cards as prizes."
Paiz read from a statement in response to the ruling. "The counsel, through our
legal team, has submitted a report to Judge Hudspeth and the attorney general on
the steps we have taken to demonstrate to the court the operation of Speaking
Rock center is in full compliance with us, with this order. The tribal council
believes the sweepstakes operation taking place on tribal land is legal under
state laws and previous court rulings."
Paiz said documentation of proof is being drafted and will be submitted to Judge
Hudspeth.
