Caesars agrees to pay $1 million penalty over efforts to sway Indiana casino regulators
State regulators slapped Caesars Entertainment with a near-record fine on Thursday in response to the casino giant's failed effort to get out of paying a $50 million license transfer fee to the state. In an agreement between Las Vegas-based Caesars and the Indiana Gaming Commission, the company agreed to pay $1 million to settle allegations that it violated public trust and confidence in the integrity of Indiana’s casino industry.
