FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Office of State Courts Administrator assume that any
impact on the workload of the judiciary would depend upon the number of
abuses of the restrictions which are prosecuted; however, they would not
expect a significant increase in the number of criminal prosecutions.
Officials from the Office of the Attorney General, the Missouri Gaming
Commission, the Office of Prosecution Services, and the Office of the State
Public Defender assume the proposed legislation would have no fiscal impact
on their respective agencies.

DESCRIPTION
The proposed legislation would permit the sale or purchase of a slot machine
for operation at the residence of the owner, if such slot machine was not
operated for gambling purposes. Any slot machine seized from any defendant
could not be destroyed until after a court determined that such slot machine
was operated for gambling purposes.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other
program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental
space.
