Arkansas Supreme Court rejects Pope County Casino appeal

The Cherokee Nation Businesses' appeal of its proposed Legends Resort & Casino in Russellville has been denied by the Arkansas Supreme Court.

The Pope County casino license has been returned to the Arkansas Racing Commission following the formal settlement of the Cherokee's appeal. A new round of bidding is anticipated by the state gaming regulator, but Legends Casino's $300 million offer is likely to be the only one that qualifies.
