CHARLESTON (AP) — West Virginia’s Lottery Commission is expecting some legal advice from the attorney general regarding one of its biggest operators, who’s facing criminal charges.

Commission members are set to receive that counsel Wednesday, as they consider whether to suspend Southern Amusement’s license.

Both the company and its owner, Joe C. Ferrell, were indicted last month on federal charges. The 48 felony counts include racketeering, illegal gambling and the bribing of a Lottery inspector.

Southern Amusement leases 640 limited video lottery machines, the most of any licensed operator.

The commission doesn’t want to run afoul of a judge’s order preserving the assets of both defendants. Federal prosecutors plan to seize those assets if they’re convicted.
