Understand this us not professional legal advice, see my comments below your questions
Is that 86 for all the other places legitimate?
1. Doesn't the sound like it was in writing - no
2. The corporate ownership setup would need to be udentical. Different share structures and shareholders - no
There's so many casinos out there I don't remember all the sister properties. Does this mean if I did accidentally go into a sister property they would arrest me?
Which means they didn't give it to you in writing. It's no longer a megalomaniac trespass. Further, they must give you an opportunity to leave the property voluntarily. No, they can't arrest you (legally)
If they want to arrest how can they prove you're the same person who was 86ed years ago, can they do that just by looking at an old photo?
See prior comments. Put Bob Nersesian's cell number on your cell phone speed dial.
How common are arrests for trespassing in casinos and has it happened to anyone here?
Don't think it's that frequent.
If they do arrest you for trespass and call the cops whats that process?
Don't know, but seems to be a legal mess that casinos should avoid, since the trespass was verbal VS. Written.
Do they take you outside write you a ticket and let you go or take you to jail?
Don't know
If you're from out of town do you have to fly back out there and go to court?
I would assume so, though I'm sure a lawyer can appear on your behalf. You nave some legal remedies which may be good, depending on the actual facts.
I a bit worried about this because I have a common look and am often mistaken for other players. A lot of casinos think I'm this other guy named Sam who has been backed off a lot
Since you're not Sam, don't worry about it.
