Following a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia District Monday, Hard Rock Bet could go live with its sports betting platform in Florida as soon as Sept. 19 if West Flagler and Associates, the plaintiff in the sports betting case, does not take further legal action.
The court late Monday afternoon denied West Flagler’s request for an en banc rehearing of the case. According to the appellate court rules, the decision becomes effective on the eighth day after it is handed down, which would be Sept. 19.
The Seminole Tribe, which launched its Hard Rock wagering platform for 34 days in late 2021 before shutting down due to court order, could be on the cusp of a relaunch.
