Gaming law is the set of rules and regulations that apply to the gaming or gambling industry. Lawyers who practice gaming law handle cases involving casinos, racetracks, state lottery revenue distribution, and more. Because gaming activity is heavily regulated under federal and state laws, gaming law attorneys may represent clients before government commissions and regulatory agencies.
Raymond is a city in Pacific County, Washington, United States. The population was 2,975 at the 2000 census. The city of Raymond is mainly supported by the logging industry. Raymond experiences a large amount of annual rainfall and the skies above the city are filled with dark clouds for a majority of the year. The people of the town typically enjoy outdoor recreational activities such as hunting, fishing, and riding off-road vehicles. Because of its relative isolation (being more than two hours away from both Seattle, Washington and Portland, Oregon) and its shortage of career and educational opportunities, a large percentage of people who grow up and go to school in Raymond eventually leave the town to attend college or find jobs in cities with more schools and a more diverse economy. Those who do stay in the town typically retain a strong sense of hometown pride and have an unbreakable sentimentality towards the city's rich forest environment and slow-paced lifestyle.
