The legal landscape of daily fantasy sports in California could change drastically soon.
California daily fantasy sports is currently a legal activity. But that’s partly because there isn’t a law explicitly prohibiting it.
However, the California Attorney General’s office is looking into the matter. If the AG decides operators are breaking the law, DFS in California might become a thing of the past.
Sports betting in California is a hotly contested issue. Last year, DFS operators and tribal nations backed separate sports betting ballot initiatives. But both failed by wide margins.
On the bright side, the DFS investigation won’t directly impact the possible legalization of sports betting.
