Underdog Fantasy sues California attorney general over anticipated DFS opinion

Regulation

Underdog Fantasy filed suit in Sacramento County Superior Court on 28 June seeking to block California Attorney General Rob Bonta from issuing anticipated guidance that could classify daily fantasy sports as illegal gambling. The company argues that the attorney general lacks authority to make that determination and requests a writ of mandate and temporary restraining order; the attorney general’s office has not commented.

The court action could affect whether Underdog can continue offering daily fantasy sports in California.
