Attorneys argue over shutdown

4/8/2004 (Bill Draper, Las Vegas Sun) TOPEKA, Kan. -- For the third time in a week, a federal judge has denied a request from the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma for a temporary restraining order that would allow the tribe to keep its Kansas City, Kan., casino open.

U.S. District Judge Julie Robinson said Wednesday the Wyandotte Nation has not shown that it would suffer irreparable harm if the casino were to remain closed, nor did it show convincing evidence it would win a legal fight to keep its casino operation open.

Last week, a federal judge in Washington, D.C., denied a request from the tribe for a temporary restraining order, and the same judge denied a similar request this week.

Local and state officials on Friday closed the downtown casino -- located in narrow trailers encased in paneling and attached to a renovated Masonic Lodge building -- and hauled off more than $1 million in cash and property, including about 150 gambling machines.
