- Antar v. MGM Resorts International Inc, BetMGM LLC.MGM Resorts International et al. (argued Dec. 10, 2024 before the Third Circuit, No. 24-1364, on appeal from D.N.J.), based on allegations that defendants "constantly lured him to bet despite knowing that he had an addiction" as reported by Bloomberg Law.[1]
- KalshiEx v. CFTC (argued Jan. 17, 2025, before the D.C. Circuit) - "At issue is KalshiEx LLC’s (Kalshi) ability to list political event contracts for trading. Previously, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) issued an order disapproving of Kalshi’s attempts to offer such contracts."[2] The district court held for KalshiEx on summary judgment (Sept. 6, 2024), ruling that the CFTC exceeded its authority under the federal statute. The appellate court seemed skeptical of the broad claim made by the CFTC to authority. The appellate decision could affect sports-based contracts and sports gambling in general.
- US States v. Meta et al.
- D'Alessandro v. DraftKings[3]
