The debut episode of Lawyers, Lines, and Money returns to its roots with a deep dive on the Florida sports betting legalization saga. Co-hosts (and gaming lawyers) Dan Wallach and Justin Mader break down the latest developments in the the two lawsuits. Will the U.S. Supreme Court agree to hear the case? What is the impact of SCOTUS granting a 60-day extension of time for West Flagler to file its petition for writ of certiorari?  Should we read anything into Justice Kavanaugh’s statement that the Seminole Tribe's gaming compact with the State of Florida "likely violates" IGRA and that the state law granting the Tribe a monopoly “raises serious equal protection issues”? 
How will the Florida Supreme Court rule in the companion case addressing Amendment 3? Is sports betting a form of “casino gambling”? Can online sports wagers made by patrons from locations throughout the State be “deemed” to occur exclusively on tribal lands? What new arguments did Governor DeSantis assert in his latest court filing? Dan and Justin offer their insights, predictions, and anticipated timelines on all of the pending and future legal challenges to Florida sports betting.
