Supreme Court to Review Florida's Online Sports Betting Compact

The U.S. Supreme Court's decision could reshape the future of online gaming, challenging the exclusive rights granted to the Seminole Tribe by Florida.

  • Florida and the Seminole Tribe's compact for exclusive online sports betting faces legal challenges, questioning the legality of bets made off tribal lands.
  • Competing gaming firms argue the compact circumvents state laws and constitutional requirements, seeking a Supreme Court ruling against it.
  • The compact, signed in 2021, grants the Seminole Tribe exclusive rights to online sports betting, potentially generating billions in revenue through 2024.
  • Legal disputes focus on whether online bets placed anywhere in Florida count as being made on tribal land, due to server locations.
  • A Supreme Court decision could set a precedent affecting online gaming across the U.S., with significant financial implications for the state and the tribe.
