Wynn Takes Fight to DoJ over Foreign Agent Civil Lawsuit

Steve Wynn, the former boss of Wynn Resorts Ltd. and the company’s founder, asked a federal court in the United States on Monday to dismiss the civil lawsuit filed against him by the Department of Justice which alleges that he should be registered as a foreign agent of the People’s Republic of China.

Wynn Seeks to Dismiss Foreign Agent Lawsuit
Wynn stepped down from his company amid allegations of sexual misconduct which led to a number of investigations into the company by state regulators. Wynn is also connected with China as the company operates Wynn Macau Ltd, which runs two casino resorts in the special administrative region.

Even though Wynn has agreed to step down, he never accepted the allegations mounted against him. He settled in court with his accusers and never pled guilty to any of the accusations that tarnished his reputation. He believes the Department of Justice to have filed a frivolous lawsuit he is equally determined to contest.
