Mohegan Sun claims a complaint with the New London Supreme Court that Mayer issued “signs” in November 2017 totaling $ 5 million, but they wore because of “insufficient money in the account that was drawn on it.” As of the deposit, the casino said that Mayer made payments that total $ 2,217,500, leaving a balance of $ 2,782,500.
