Horseshoe Club Operating Co., owner of Binion's Horseshoe hotel-casino in downtown Las Vegas, was sued Wednesday over $194,529 in allegedly unpaid rent by a group of investors in Clark County District Court.

The lawsuit was filed by Olivia Silvagni and the Northern Trust Bank as co-trustees of the Michele Silvagni Family Trust, William Morse and Wells Fargo Bank as co-trustees of the Victor Silvagni Family Trust, Moe Ltd. Family Partnership, Gregory Moe, Maria Wadsworth, Rebeca Polidan, Garrett Wadsworth, Heather Moe, Morgan Moe, Kathryn Seligman, Diane Coulthard Kneeland, Premier Trust of Nevada and Karen Coulthard Tadsen.

The investors claim they hold the lease rights to a parcel located within the Horseshoe. The lawsuit didn't specify the size or location of the parcel within the hotel-casino.

Binion's owner Becky Behnen declined comment on the allegations.
