Online sports gaming will remain on hold in Florida a while longer, as the South Florida company suing to stop a compact with the Seminole Tribe files for a rehearing in its federal appeals case.
West Flagler Associates filed a petition for an en banc rehearing in the DC Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday.
Back in June, an appeals court panel sided with the U.S. Department of the Interior that the federal government followed the rules when it allowed the Seminole Tribe to enter into a compact with the state of Florida in 2021.
That compact would allow online gaming in Florida, provided the servers for the sports betting were located on tribal land.
