§ 511a.4. Duties of the Bureau and the Office of Enforcement Counsel.
(a) The Bureau will, on its own initiative, or upon referral by a law enforcement agency or a slot machine licensee investigate a person to determine whether the person meets the criteria for exclusion provided in 4 Pa.C.S. § 1514 (relating to regulation requiring exclusion or ejection of certain persons) and § 511a.3 (relating to criteria for exclusion or ejection).
(b) If, upon completion of an investigation, the Bureau determines that an individual should be placed on the exclusion list, the Office of Enforcement Counsel will file a petition for exclusion with the Clerk, identifying the candidate and setting forth a factual basis for the petition. The petition must include information demonstrating that the individual satisfies the criteria for exclusion or ejection under section 1514 of the act or this chapter.
(c) In addition to filing the petition for exclusion, if exigent circumstances exist, the Office of Enforcement Counsel may file a request for a temporary emergency order in accordance with § 403a.7 (relating to temporary emergency orders) provided that:
(1) The procedures in § 403a.7(a)—(i) are applicable to requests for temporary emergency orders filed in conjunction with petitions for exclusion.
(2) If the request for a temporary emergency order is granted, the person named in the emergency order will be temporarily placed on the exclusion list until the Board acts upon the underlying petition.
(3) If the person named in the emergency order files a request for an informal hearing under § 403a.7(h), the request for an informal hearing does not toll or stay the time period to request a formal hearing in accordance with § 511a.6 (relating to demand for hearing on the placement of a person on the exclusion list).
