US Responds to iMEGA in Online Gambling Legal Suit
Today, Casino Gambling Web came across the USDJ’s written response and the arguments are much the same as they were in their initial filing for a dismissal.
The new documents state that the members in iMEGA’s suit have not been harmed specifically by the passing of the UIGEA. They also state that the iMEGA members, if they are breaking laws presented in the UIGEA, are not acts of free speech, but rather acts of conduct that may or may not be pursued by prosecution. The USDJ also states that no member is currently being prosecuted, as well there is no reason to fear prosecution, therefore iMEGA has no grounds to further pursue a TRO against the UIGEA.
The full pdf file of the new defense’s request to dismiss can be found here.
September 26th is the date for both sides to present oral arguments. If you are interested, read the pdf file linked above, there is a great deal more to the defense than we wrote about.
Casino Gambling Web has hired a legal team to analyze this case so stay tuned, we’ll have that to you as soon as we get it.
