2006 New York Code - Power Of State Racing And Wagering Board To Impose Penalties.

 
    §  243.  Power of state racing and wagering board to impose penalties.
  In addition to its power to suspend  or  revoke  occupational  licenses,
  licenses to conduct running races and race meetings or steeplechases and
  steeplechase  meetings  and licenses to conduct pari-mutuel betting at a
  race course or race meeting for running races or steeplechases issued by
  it, the state racing and wagering board is hereby authorized  to  impose
  civil  penalties upon any such licensee for a violation of any provision
  of sections two hundred twenty-two through seven hundred  five  of  this
  chapter  or  the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, not
  exceeding five thousand dollars  for  each  violation,  which  penalties
  shall  be  paid  into  the  state  treasury.  Each  day  upon which such
  violation continues may  be  considered  by  the  board  as  a  separate
  violation  in  assessing the amount of civil penalty to be imposed.  Any
  penalty so imposed shall be sued for by the attorney general in the name
  of the people of the state of New York, if so directed by the board. The
  amount of the penalty collected by the board or recovered  in  any  such
  action,  or paid to the board upon a compromise as hereinafter provided,
  shall be paid by the department of state into  the  state  treasury  and
  credited  to  the  general  fund.  The board, for cause shown and in its
  discretion, may extend the time for the payment of such penalty and,  by
  compromise may accept less than the amount of such penalty as imposed in
  settlement  thereof.  The  powers  granted  by this section shall not be
  affected by the circumstances that any such license shall  have  expired
  by its terms prior to the imposition of such penalty.
