NJW aktuell 2009, p. XII – p. XIII: Germany and its Prohibitions – can someone win my house?

The market is there, without a doubt: Currently, freehold houses in rural areas in Germany in particular seem hardly marketable, so that often even compulsory auctions fail. Now, a Robin Hood has turned up who has set the goal of cutting through the seemingly impenetrable legal and administrative thickets of gambling law and who has paved the way, not only for himself, but for innumerable fellow sufferers with slow-selling real estate.

Last year the Syrian-born gambler – one of an estimated 180 high-rolling international gamblers known as ‚whales‘ – was told by a judge to pay up.

SugarHouse wins latest round as state’s high court upholds land license

It was one step forward, one step back for the city this week as it battles with developers for two local casinos about their controversial riverfront locations. The state Supreme Court yesterday ruled that then-Mayor Street’s administration properly issued a license last year for SugarHouse to build its casino on state-owned „riparian lands“ along the Delaware River.

The country stands to double its tax revenues from gaming over the next five years as three more casinos come to the table — new players likely to add, not take from existing operations. „The possibility exists, all things being equal, that the government could double its tax revenue from casinos with the addition of these new operations,“ said gaming board secretary Bernard Bonamy. The government already does quite well with the existing four. In 2006, it raked in BSD 14.1 million, through a dual system of taxation.
