Lawsuit filed over liquor at Michigan tribal casinos


A lawsuit in Michigan state court seeks to force tribes to obtain liquor license at their casinos.

Patrick Devlin, a former employee of the Michigan Gaming Control Board, said the tribes have to follow state liquor laws. But a spokesperson for attorney general Mike Cox, the target of the lawsuit, indicated that the issue is addressed by the tribal-state gaming compact.

Devlin used to monitor tribal casinos at his former job. He now works as a gaming regulation officer for Detroit's three commercial casions.
