Sinatra Probe Stay Granted by Nevada Gaming Commission
The Nevada Gaming Commission granted a stay delaying their order that Frank Sinatra and attorney Mickey Rudin submit to licensing review. Webb Corp. holds 6.2 percent of Del E. Webb and could see influence on policies, prompting the suit to determine who pays fees and if the corporation must submit names for licensing. The stay may be adjusted if business relations change, with potential involvement of Hank Greenspun.
