                      TITLE 15--COMMERCE AND TRADE
 
                   CHAPTER 57--INTERSTATE HORSERACING
 
Sec. 3005. Liability and damages

    Any person accepting any interstate off-track wager in violation of 
this chapter shall be civilly liable for damages to the host State, the 
host racing association and the horsemen's group. Damages for each 
violation shall be based on the total of off-track wagers as follows:
        (1) If the interstate off-track wager was of a type accepted at 
    the host racing association, damages shall be in an amount equal to 
    that portion of the takeout which would have been distributed to the 
    host State, host racing association and the horsemen's group, as if 
    each such interstate off-track wager had been placed at the host 
    racing association.
        (2) If such interstate off-track wager was of a type not 
    accepted at the host racing association, the amount of damages shall 
    be determined at the rate of takeout prevailing at the off-track 
    betting system for that type of wager and shall be distributed 
    according to the same formulas as in paragraph (1) above.
