BUTLER NATIONAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES KANSAS DESTINATION GAMING RULED CONSTITUTIONAL BY LOWER COURT
OLATHE, KANSAS, February 6, 2008, - Butler National Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board BUKS) a recognized provider of professional management services in the gaming industry, announces that the District Court of Shawnee County, Kansas issued its ruling on legislation related to casino gaming in Kansas as defined by the Kansas Expanded Lottery Act (SB66). The Court ruled that the Act is constitutional. Boot Hill Gaming is assisting Butler National with the assembly of an All Kansas Team to develop a destination resort and gaming establishment to be known as the Boot Hill Resort and Casino. The plan is to enhance and recreate the world famous 1870-1880's experience at the historic Boot Hill destination in Dodge City, Kansas. In September 2007, Butler National's wholly-owned subsidiary Butler National Service Corporation submitted an application to the State of Kansas to manage a prospective destination gaming operation on behalf of the State of Kansas in Dodge City. March 26, 2008, is the currently scheduled deadline for the Kansas Lottery to complete a review of the Butler National application and negotiate a potential contact. If approved by the Kansas Lottery, a seven-member Lottery Gaming Facility Review Board will have sixty days after the completion of the Lottery Commission review to determine if a contract is in the best interests of the State of Kansas. If selected by the Review Board, the Gaming and Racing Commission will have an additional 10 days to complete background reviews. All three deadlines may be extended an additional 60 days by the Governor. The Kansas Expanded Lottery Act (SB 66) may be downloaded from the web at www.kslottery.com and select Kansas Expanded Lottery Act.
