Tribal coalition challenges Kalshi sports contracts in Maryland court
A coalition of 27 federally recognised tribes and seven tribal associations has filed an amicus brief in the Maryland case involving Kalshi and the state. The groups argue that Kalshi’s sports event contracts are wagers that threaten tribal gaming rights; Kalshi has asked the court to exclude the brief, saying the tribes lack a direct stake and add no new arguments.
The court’s treatment of the contracts could affect how tribal gaming laws apply to sports event markets in Maryland.
