It’s now a guarantee that the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) won’t decide in the coming days whether to hear an appeal of a lawsuit over the legality of online sports betting in Florida. A recent decision by the Court may mean that its decision on whether to take up that appeal will not be forthcoming anytime soon.
The US Supreme Court has given the US Dept. of Justice (DOJ) representing the Dept. of the Interior (DOI) until May 13 to file its response to the petition for the Court to review the case. SCOTUS won’t issue a decision on the petition until then.
A decision from the Supreme Court of the United States on this matter, West Flagler Associates, et al v. Deb Haaland, et al has been pending since the petitioners filed their appeal with the Court in February 2024.
