In a letter dated March 27, Wynn\u2019s attorney asserted that the divestiture of Wynn\u2019s shares precluded him from further scrutiny and that he would no longer respond to requests for information from the commission.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs Mr. Wynn is no longer a qualifier of any commission licensee, there is no longer any regulatory or statutory justification to continue the commission\u2019s inquiry into Mr. Wynn\u2019s suitability as a qualifier of the commission,” said Wynn’s attorney. “The commission no longer has jurisdiction over Mr. Wynn \u2014 he is a private Nevada citizen unaffiliated with\u00a0Wynn Resorts\u00a0LLC or any commission licensee.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\nBut according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/em>, the MGC has scheduled a hearing for May in which they will seek to determine whether Wynn has truly removed himself from the company and whether or not he remains a \u201cqualifier\u201d in the licensing process.<\/p>\n\u201cThe commission\u2019s decision at the hearing will not end the current investigation by the Investigation Enforcement Bureau as to the allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct against Steve Wynn or the handling of those allegations by Wynn Resorts Ltd. and its officers and directors,\u201d said the MGC. \u201cThe hearing will also not consider whether other employees, board members, shareholders or other Wynn companies should remain as qualifiers.\u201d<\/p>\n
