No state gaming license may be assigned either in whole or in part. 

(3)  After the issuance of the license, it shall continue in effect upon proper payment of the state license fees and any other fees, taxes and penalties, as required by law and the regulations of the commission, subject to the power of the commission to revoke, suspend, condition or limit licenses.

Final action by the commission must be taken within one hundred twenty (120) days after the recommendation of the executive director has been presented to the commission.

(8)  The commission has full and absolute power and authority to deny any application for any cause it deems reasonable. If an application is denied, the commission shall prepare and file its written decision upon which its order denying the application is based.
