TRENTON, N.J. (Legal Newsline) - Wayne Chan filed a federal complaint on September 24 in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against Golden Nugget Atlantic City LLC for breach of contract, breach of implied contract, breach of 8implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and unjust enrichment.

According to the complaint, Chan  frequently gambled at Golden Nugget Atlantic City between 2018 and 2019. Chan now seeks the return of more than $469,125.00 in lost money as a result of Defendant’s violation of various New Jersey gambling statutes and regulations which were supposed to be strictly complied with but were not, Chan alleges. 

Chan alleges that the casino used non-transparent dice, making it more likely that the dice were weighted, which is illegal, and made the odds stacked against gamblers. 

Chan seeks compensatory damages in the amount of $469,125.00, attorney's fees and cost of suit. Chan is represented by Charles J. Messina of Genova Burns LLC.
