Seminole Tribe sues DraftKings over alleged illegal sports betting in Florida

The Seminole Tribe of Florida has filed a lawsuit against DraftKings and its CEO, Jason Robins , alleging that the company operates an illegal sports betting business in the state without a licence. The 72-page complaint, filed in Florida state court, alleges that DraftKings’ “Super App” violates state law and the 2021 Gaming Compact between Florida and the Seminole Tribe. The complaint cites public statements by Robins describing DraftKings’ Florida product as functionally identical to its licensed sportsbook offerings in other regulated states .
