10 The Commission suspended Miss11 Perez-Jusino's casino key license at the12 February 2020 public meeting and remanded to13 the Division's complaint to the conference14 process.15 To date I am not aware that Miss Jusino16 has requested a conference in this matter, and17 as a result of the conduct alleged in the18 complaint, Miss Perez-Jusino has been19 terminated from her position in employment and20 is not working in the New Jersey gaming21 industry.22 At this time, as no request has been23 made for a conference, the Division would24 respectfully request that the -- Miss25 Perez-Jusino's casino key employee license be

25

1 ITEM NO. 62 revoked for the reasons set forth in the3 complaint.4 Thank you.5 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Thank you.6 Ms. Perez, before you make a statement,7 I just want to remind you that anything you say8 today can and will be used against you in that9 criminal matter that is still pending. Do you

1 ITEM NO. 62 MS. PIMPINELLI: Miss Perez, this is3 your opportunity to tell the Commission4 whatever you would like to tell them. Or ask5 for whatever relief you're requesting.6 Did she drop off?7 You may need to take your phone off8 mute.9 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Yes. I just did.

10 So, yeah. Okay.11 I don't -- okay. I haven't got to12 chance to like -- like -- like, how could13 you -- ask for the letters or anything like14 that because they are not going to do anything15 unless I have the papers from the court and16 everything was settled for that first. That's17 why I did not answer the letter for the right.18 Because the guy told me that I didn't receive19 any letter, that I would be suspended. Which I20 received a letter saying it was suspended. I21 received a letter that describe it, which I22 don't know, you know, what's going on.23 The only thing I received from the24 employer is I was fired and I was charged. But25 since then, I haven't received any court or

27

1 ITEM NO. 62 nothing of my charges or any nothing. So the3 letter -- I only have the letter right here4 that -- from the court. I haven't speak to5 anybody further. I haven't speak to a lawyer.6 I haven't speak to anybody because of the7 COVID-19 spread that happened, like, of this --8 the whole -- well, the whole situation went on.9 And I haven't even had a chance to ask or

10 request anything. Because, like, I was telling11 to -- telling to calling on this thing. Which12 she was -- and, you know, I just -- I don't --13 It's just hard for me because I don't --14 everything got -- like, I'm confused. I'm15 like -- like, the laws, I don't know what I16 should take the next step or anything because17 the only thing I received is this letter saying18 that I'm terminated. Or I haven't received19 anything from -- not the court, and they told20 me they not going to do anything until the21 court -- they have settled with the court. And22 I don't know what to do -- like, do now.23 CHAIR PLOUSIS: What is your current24 address now? Did you move? Is there a problem25 that you weren't getting your correspondence?

28

1 ITEM NO. 62 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Exactly. It was --3 the thing was -- okay. Since I have a4 situation. Okay? The COVID-19 started5 unemployment. You know, everything was denied.6 Things like that. I had to keep moving and7 whatever. So I had moved for a minute in8 Philadelphia. And basically, you know, I got9 two kids. So I can't support my kids for -- I

10 was just I couldn't do nothing unless I was11 settled with the court. But the court is get12 postponing, and I don't know nothing about the13 charges. I don't know nothing what's going on14 with my cases. I don't know any -- I don't --15 I haven't even sit for the court. That's why16 I'm saying. And, like, I don't -- like, that's17 all I -- the only thing I have is of the court18 is what they sent from the Commission, that the19 only charges that I have. And next for the20 court, they haven't give me a paper or21 anything. Only the schedule letters. And22 then -- or these ones. The only -- that's what23 I'm saying.24 The only thing I received, I received25 the one that said suspended, and I received the

29

1 ITEM NO. 62 one that was sent, one. But then I received3 this one. And I had to talk to a lady because4 at first I thought it was -- they was both5 together the letter from the court and the6 commission because they was coming at the same7 time. So I thought it was about the same ting.8 So I call Monday because they rescheduled my9 appointment. And I received this letter and it

10 told me it had nothing to do with the same11 thing. It's two different cases.12 And then to try to talk to you guys13 before I actually went to court again, but they14 have me going back and forth. And, like, I15 haven't talked to nobody on my cases.16 CHAIR PLOUSIS: For the record, what is17 your address now?18 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: 828 North Maryland19 Avenue.20 CHAIR PLOUSIS: And that's where you got21 this correspondence today for you're call in?22 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Yes. Correct.23 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Okay. But you haven't24 received anything from the courts at that25 address?

1 ITEM NO. 62 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: No. The only thing I3 received from the court is the schedule. And4 right now I have a letter from the court. Like5 I said, I supposed to have a -- to go to court6 on Monday. But no. I received a letter that7 said, please take notice that your court8 hearing on 3-6 has been canceled. Your case9 has been referred to the grand jury. This is a

10 schedule with a notice and/or day in court.11 Please -- like, please be touch. And they12 have -- they have the phone number.13 CHAIR PLOUSIS: And your -- that address14 is on record with the Division as well? Have15 you gotten correspondence from the Division of16 Gaming Enforcement?17 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Say that one more18 time?19 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Is the address that you20 have -- have you gotten correspondence from the21 Division of Gaming Enforcement at that address?22 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Yes.23 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Okay.24 MS. PIMPINELLI: Hello. This is Teresa25 Pimpinelli again.

31

1 ITEM NO. 62 Miss Perez-Jusino, are you seeking a3 deferral of your matter pending the criminal4 charges?5 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: That's -- no. I6 haven't got anything. Like, I only got one7 paper. And I don't -- I don't have anything8 deferred. I only got one paper before I got9 fired. And they -- like, they were --

10 MS. PIMPINELLI: Right.11 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: They were actually12 going to let me know. I was supposed to go to13 the Superior Court. They were supposed to let14 me know that was the case. But when I went15 there to schedule it, they gave me a letter to16 reschedule. So I haven't talked about17 anything. I don't know exactly how many cases18 I've got, because the only thing I know is they19 keep saying a ticket. A ticket. But I don't20 know what -- or how many charges or a ticket.21 MS. PIMPINELLI: I understand.22 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: I don't have nothing.23 MS. PIMPINELLI: The criminal charges24 pending against you are separate and distinct25 from those -- the matters before the Casino

32

1 ITEM NO. 62 Control Commission. So what I'm asking is,3 would you like to request a hearing and then4 defer that hearing on your matter pending5 resolution of your criminal charges? That's6 your option right now currently. Or you can7 move forward with the hearing before the8 Commission. Or the Commission can consider the9 Division's request to revoke. That's where you

10 are right now.11 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Say it -- say it one12 more time?13 MS. PIMPINELLI: Right now your options14 are to abandon and let the Commission consider15 the Division's request to revoke. You can16 indicate that you want to request a hearing and17 defer your -- the Commission's matter pending18 your criminal charges. Or you can request a19 hearing and move forward with the hearing even20 though the criminal charges are pending.21 My suggestion would be for the22 Commissioners that we defer this for the time23 being to permit her the opportunity to24 determine whether or not she wants a deferral25 if the Division is acceptable of that.

33

1 ITEM NO. 62 MS. PEREZ-JUSINO: Yeah.3 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Jordan, you want to4 weigh in here?5 MR. HOLLANDER: Thank you, Mr. Chairman.6 This is Jordan Hollander from the Gaming --7 Division of Gaming Enforcement.8 Miss Perez-Jusino certainly has the9 opportunity under Section 86d of the Casino

10 Control Act to request a deferment in this11 matter, and I would leave that up to the12 judgment of the Commission, whether to grant13 that in this instance.14 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Okay. Okay. Just for15 the record, has she been getting your corre --16 I mean, have your correspondence been going to17 the Maryland address? Is that what you have on18 record there?19 MR. HOLLANDER: Yes. That is the20 address we have on record.21 CHAIR PLOUSIS: Okay. So we're clear22 that she's getting everything from the Division23 of Gaming Enforcement and from the Commission.24 And she's apparently not getting her -- saying25 she's not getting all the documents from the
