What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, all withdrawals from a bingo account must be made by

check, payable to a specific individual, including for a money prize in a bingo game.

There is one exception to this rule. If a single bingo prize is divided among more than

one winner and an equal division of the prize is $10 or less for each winner, the check

for the total prize may be made out to cash and the winners may be paid with cash

from the check. This bill increases the amount per winner from $10 to $25 for this

exception to apply.
