Michigan court bars Kalshi from offering or advertising sports betting
A Michigan court issued a temporary restraining order barring Kalshi from offering or advertising online sports betting in the state while the Attorney General’s lawsuit proceeds. The case alleges that Kalshi’s event contracts amount to unlicensed sports betting under Michigan law; a federal court had remanded the lawsuit to state court after Kalshi sought to move it. The order remains in place pending further proceedings.
Kalshi cannot offer or advertise its sports betting platform in Michigan while the state’s licensing dispute proceeds.
