A clubber's night out proved to be an expensive one after he was ordered to fork out compensation for a casino doorman he punched and damage to "bespoke handles" on a large front door. Online marketer Chris Conduit had been our with his brother and nephew when they visited Alea Casino, Upper Parliament Street, Nottingham city centre, on December 9.
Doorman Valentin Badescu saw two men who were "extremely drunk to him", said prosecutor Peter Bettany at Nottingham Magistrates' Court on Tuesday (January 17). He told the men - one being 41-year-old Conduit - they could not come in because they had too much to drink.
But they would not take "no" for an answer and "kept shouting at me", the court was told. "I told them to go home. They wouldn't be coming into the casino," Mr Badescu's statement read.
