Connecticut town sues for taxes on slot machines


A Connecticut town has sued a gaming manufacturer that supplies slot machines to the casino owned by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation.

The town of Ledyard claims that WMS Gaming owes property taxes on machines leased to the Foxwoods Resort Casino. Over $18,000 is at issue.

In a related lawsuit pending in state court, the tribe says the town's tax hasn't been authorized by Congress, the tribal-state gaming compact or the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act.
