Re: NYC poker raid?
[ QUOTE ]
To do what? If it is to arrest the employees and owners, you are right -- they could just get the witness to sign an affidavit, present that to a magistrate, get a warrant, and go to the named party's houses and arrest them there. No problem.
But if it reopens as a backgammon club, and if backgammon for money is legal, for what would the people be arrested?

The owners are still liable for the club's actions, both current and previous. The players are safe (unless they are fools), but we need to be concerned about the safety of the staff, the owners, and their investment in the club as well or there will never be poker in NYC.
