Kalshi has filed a motion to dismiss a Wisconsin tribe’s lawsuit against the prediction market, arguing that the tribe has no grounds to sue because it is not a party to a tribal compact.
The Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin sued Kalshi — as well as its partner Robinhood — in August, arguing that the company offered illegal Class III gaming on tribal lands, in violation of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA).
However, Kalshi late on Friday submitted a brief arguing that the complaint should be dismissed, which would effectively throw out the case if supported by the judge, barring appeal.
The brief outlines many of the same points that convinced a judge earlier this month to allow Kalshi to continue to operate on tribal lands in a lawsuit filed by three California tribes.
