DETROIT (AP)– The Michigan Gaming Control Board says Detroit’s Greektown Casino has less than a month to show why the state shouldn’t force the sale of the cash-strapped casino.

The board on Tuesday set the deadline for Greektown Casino, which hasn’t met state-mandated financial goals.

The Detroit Free Press and The Detroit News report it’s unclear whether a deal announced last week to sell a 40 percent stake in the casino will go through swiftly.

The casino says that deal will help fix its problems. Entertainment Interests Group LLC of Bloomfield Hills signed a purchase agreement to invest $100 million in the struggling gambling operation.

The Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians is the majority owner of Greektown Holdings LLC.
