(A) Denial of license. If after a review
of a video lottery sales agent employee application and consideration of any
other factors deemed relevant to the efficient and proper operation of video
lottery, the director determines that an applicant has not met the requirements
for issuance of a video lottery sales agent employee license, the director may
deny the application or may request that the application be revised and
reviewed for further consideration. (B) Grounds for refusal. In addition to
the grounds for refusal to grant an applicant's request for a license in
divisions (C)(1) to (C)(5), (D)(1) to (D)(3) and (E)(1) to (E)(2) of section
3770.05 of the Revised Code, and except as provided in paragraph (C) of this
rule, in the event any of the following are determined by the director, an
application for a video lottery license may be denied: (1) An applicant is affiliated with a
technology provider or other vendor engaged in the operation of video lottery
gaming in the state which has been determined by the director to be an
unacceptable affiliation. (2) A determination that
a video lottery applicant has made a misrepresentation regarding a fact
material to an application or has failed to disclose information regarding a
fact material to an application. (3) A determination that
an applicant or person who will be involved in video lottery operations at the
video lottery applicant's facility has been convicted of any criminal
violation which as determined by the director may negatively impact the
integrity of the lottery. (C) Sealing of record. The director may
require an applicant who has been convicted of any of the offenses referenced
in paragraph (B) of this rule to obtain an order from a court of competent
jurisdiction to have the record of such offense sealed. If such an order is not
obtained during the time specified by the director, the director may refuse the
application. However, if the record of an applicant contains an offense set
forth in paragraph (B) of this rule which is at least ten years old, the
director may disregard the offense and may license the applicant. (D) Right to hearing. When required to do
so by the Administrative Procedure Act, the director shall afford a hearing to
an applicant for a license affected by a decision to deny an application for a
video lottery sales agent employee license. Such hearings shall be conducted by
the director or a hearing examiner designated by the director and shall comply
with the requirements for adjudication hearings set out in the Administrative
Procedure Act. Nothing contained herein shall require the director to afford
the employer or potential employer of an applicant for a license a hearing or
an opportunity to be heard on any decision relating specifically to an
application for a license. (E) Reapplication. If an application is
denied, an applicant may reapply, but any subsequent application shall require
submission of a new application and payment of a separate fee, and shall only
be submitted after any waiting period for reapplication, if any, established by

Rule 3770:2-4-06 | Video lottery sales agent employee licenses; suspension or revocation.
Effective:
February 11, 2021
(A) Suspension or revocation. A video
lottery sales agent employee license may be suspended or revoked as set forth
in this paragraph: (1) Non-compliance. The
director may suspend or revoke a license of a video lottery sales agent
employee who does not comply with the Lottery Act, all rules, terms and
conditions, policies, orders and directives adopted, promulgated or issued by
the commission or the director, or who does not comply with terms and
conditions of the application and license. (2) Conviction. The
director may suspend or revoke a license if the licensee is convicted of any
criminal violation which, as determined by the director, may negatively impact
the integrity of the lottery. (B) Right of hearing. When required to do
so by the Administrative Procedure Act, the director will afford a hearing to a
licensee affected by an order to suspend or revoke a license. Such hearings
will be conducted by the director or a hearing examiner designated by the
director and will comply with the requirements for adjudication hearings set
out in the Administrative Procedure Act. The requirement of the Administrative
Procedure Act that adjudication hearings be afforded prior to a final order by
the director to suspend or revoke a license may be waived for reasons related
to the public safety, convenience or trust, which require immediate action. The
director, however, must continue to comply with the requirements of the
Administrative Procedure Act in affording the employee a subsequent opportunity
for an adjudication hearing. Nothing contained herein requires the director to
afford the employer or potential employer of an applicant for a license a
hearing or an opportunity to be heard on any order relating to a
license. (C) Reapplication. If a license is
revoked, an individual may reapply, but any subsequent application requires
submission of a new application, and accordingly, a new review and payment of a
separate application fee. Such reapplication may only be submitted after any
associated waiting period established by the director, if any, has
expired.
