[10] The bankruptcy request was presented by the Como prosecutor following the casino's inability to pay the fees due to the municipality of Campione, the sole shareholder, causing its financial distress.

[11] The prosecutor Pasquale Addesso asked for the bankruptcy of the gambling house following the millions in debt created by the town hall.

[12] Signs of a possible failure had already arisen at the beginning of the year, with the collective dismissal of 109 employees out of 492, a decision defined by the mayor of the enclave Roberto Salmoiraghi and by the sole administrator Marco Ambrosini as a "deed due in response to the bankruptcy petition requested by the Como Public Prosecutor's Office".

[17] Following the closure of the gambling house and the collective dismissal of 482 employees, the Campione d'Italia enclave saw a drastic decrease in tourists attracted by the casino, resulting in a rapid worsening of the economic and social conditions of the resident population in the Italian exclave.

[18] As a result of the bankruptcy, the kindergarten and a center for the elderly were closed, also leading to numerous warnings from public employees to the municipality regarding non-payment of salaries and lack of contributions to the functioning of fundamental services.
