California court rejects Underdog bid to block attorney general opinion
A California court rejected Underdog Fantasy’s request for an emergency order blocking an anticipated opinion from the state attorney general, according to the report. In a ruling issued on 1 July, the judge said the company had waited too long and had not shown immediate legal harm; the opinion would be advisory and would not itself change state law.
The ruling leaves California fantasy operators exposed to a forthcoming advisory interpretation of the legality of paid contests.
