Permits civil liability against casinos and simulcast facilities for reckless indifference or intentional misconduct toward persons self-excluded from gaming activities.

This bill (A2560) changes New Jersey law to allow civil lawsuits against casinos and simulcast facilities (and their employees) when they fail to enforce self-exclusion lists due to "reckless indifference or intentional misconduct." It directly affects people who voluntarily exclude themselves from gambling through the state's self-exclusion program, which was created in 2001 to help individuals with gambling problems. The key provision removes the current legal protection that shields casinos from liability for not preventing self-excluded individuals from gambling, but only when the casino acts recklessly or intentionally. This policy change would make casinos accountable for serious failures to follow the self-exclusion program, while maintaining existing protections for ordinary enforcement errors.
