§ 18-20-105 — Slot machines - shipping notices

(1) Any slot machine
manufacturer or distributor shipping or importing a slot machine into the state of
Colorado shall provide to the Colorado limited gaming control commission created
in section 44-30-301, at the time of shipment a copy of the shipping invoice which
shall include, at a minimum, the destination, the serial number of each machine, and
a description of each machine. Any person within the state of Colorado receiving a
slot machine shall, upon receipt of the machine, provide to the Colorado limited
gaming control commission upon a form available from the commission information
showing at a minimum the location of each machine, its serial number, and
description. The report shall be provided regardless of whether the machine is
received from a manufacturer or any other person. Any machine licensed pursuant
to section 44-30-803 shall be licensed for a specific location, and movement of the
machine from that location shall be reported to said commission within the time
period set out in rules promulgated pursuant to section 44-30-803 (1)(d). Any
person violating any provision of section 44-30-803 commits a class 5 felony. Any
slot machine that is not in compliance with article 30 of title 44 is declared
contraband and may be summarily seized and destroyed after notice and hearing.

(2) Slot machines which because of age and condition bear no manufacturer
serial number shall be assigned a serial number by a remanufacturer of slot
machines. Such new serial number shall be duly recorded as required by federal
regulations.

(3) The director of the division of gaming appointed pursuant to section 44-30-201 may approve a change to the registration of a slot machine under
circumstances constituting an emergency. If said director approves an emergency
change, the registration of the slot machine shall not be suspended pending the
filing of a supplemental application.
