"Barwest" Gaming Entities Organized by Agents of Michael Malik & Marian Ilitch

Since 2003, agents of Detroit casino syndicators Michael J. Malik, Sr. and Marian Ilitch have filed documents with the Michigan Department of Corporations forming nine "Barwest" entities. Eight of those are currently active. Documentation recording the formation of MJM Barwest, L.L.C., was filed August 25, 2011, by Malik's agent, attorney William Serwer. John Kotlar, Vice President of Tax Affairs at Ilitch Holdings, Inc., is resident agent of the other seven active entities.

These Malik/Ilitch affiliates are believed to be linked to various Barstow, CA, casino development schemes the duo has floated during the last decade. The pair have partnered with the Los Coyotes Band Of Indians on these various proposals and at one time also included the Big Lagoon Rancheria tribe.
