Supreme Court of New Jersey
Bally Manufacturing Corporation, a Delaware Corporation, Appellant v. New Jersey Casino Control Commission, Respondent
March 17, 198185 N.J. 325
Summary
The New Jersey Supreme Court affirmed the Casino Control Commission's regulation limiting any casino to acquiring no more than 50% of its slot machines from a single manufacturer, holding that the Commission had authority under the Casino Control Act and that the rule was not subject to a trial-type evidentiary hearing. Justice Pashman dissented, arguing that an evidentiary hearing was required, while Justice Handler concurred, emphasizing deference to the agency's rulemaking discretion.
