OPINION
VIGIL, Judge.
{1} The question presented in this case is whether slot machines in a private home that are not used for illegal gambling are gaming machines or gambling devices and therefore subject to forfeiture because they are not licensed under the Gaming Control Act, NMSA 1978, §§ 60-2E-1 to -62 (1997, as amended through 2003)(Act). The Gaming Control Board (Board) appeals from a summary judgment granted to Cortney Gwynne, Kerry Gwynne, and Cecil L. Lunceford (Owners) in its suit seeking to forfeit the machines. We agree that the machines are not subject to forfeiture and affirm.
