Andy Sanborn, the owner of the Concord Casino who is facing felony theft charges, is appealing the revocation of his gaming license by arguing it was “unreasonable and unlawful.”

Sanborn filed an appeal asking a Merrimack County Superior Court judge to reverse administrative Judge Gregory Albert’s order, which had called the pending issues between Sanborn and the New Hampshire Lottery Commission regarding the sale of the Concord Casino “moot,” because Sanborn’s licenses had expired. Albert also said some aspects of the case were “not ripe for review” given the unresolved criminal charges against Sanborn and his company.

Sanborn argues those judgments were false and that the ruling is contradictory.
