A Clark County prosecutor says Charles Barkley is off the legal hook and the case on his $400,000 gambling debt is closed.

Chief Deputy District Attorney Bernie Zadrowski said on Friday that the retired NBA star sent a $40,000 check to pay statutory and bad check processing fees.

Earlier this week, Barkley paid $400,000 to Wynn Las Vegas after the resort filed a May 14 civil complaint in Nevada state court. It alleged Barkley failed to repay four $100,000 casino markers, or loans, received last Oct. 18 and 19.

The 45-year-old Barkley is an NBA analyst for Turner Network Television.
