Kalshi sues Ohio regulators over sports event contracts
Kalshi filed a lawsuit against the Ohio Casino Control Commission and Ohio Attorney General in federal court on 7 October, seeking to block enforcement of a cease-and-desist order. Kalshi argues its sports event contracts fall under federal oversight; Ohio officials maintain that sports-related betting must comply with state licensing rules. A hearing was scheduled for 20 October.
The case tests whether Ohio licensing rules apply to Kalshi’s sports-related event contracts.
