Two former Nevada gaming regulators on Thursday were licensed as managers and directors of Resorts World Las Vegas, a move the Nevada Gaming Commission hopes will boost anti-money-laundering compliance at the Strip resort.
Former Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval, who also served as attorney general and as a federal court judge in the state, currently is president of the University of Nevada, Reno, and former Nevada Gaming Control Board Chairman A.G. Burnett, a partner in McDonald Carano’s gaming and administrative law practice, were unanimously approved for licensing.
Sandoval chaired the Gaming Commission from 1999 through 2001 and Burnett led the Control Board from 2012 to 2017.
