Delaware to appeal betting limits to Supreme Court

January 15, 2010|By Sports Digest

Delaware Gov. Jack Markell says the state will appeal restrictions on its sports betting lottery to the U.S. Supreme Court. Markell and his aides said the state expects to file its appeal by the end of the month. The appeal will ask the Supreme Court to reverse a ruling by a federal appeals court in Philadelphia that restricts the lottery to multi-bet wagers on professional football.
