Atlantic City Casino-Hotel Operators Sued for Violating US Antitrust Law

Several casino-hotel operators in Atlantic City have been accused of violating the Antitrust Law and illegally increasing room rental rates.

Caesars Entertainment Inc, MGM Resorts International, Hard Rock International Inc, and other operators of casino hotels in Atlantic City have been accused of allegedly increasing their room rental prices in an artificial manner.

The operators are now part of a proposed class action filed against them by two New Jersey residents who claim the operators have violated Section 1 of the Sherman Act.

The 109-page lawsuit was officially filed last Tuesday in the US District Court for the District of New Jersey. It mentioned Hard Rock International Inc as a defendant, along with hospitality technology company Cendyn Group LLC with headquarters in Florida.
