Concerns about online sports betting have prompted a federally recognized tribe in Colorado to file a lawsuit.
In response to attempts by state officials and gaming officials to bring tribal gaming under state control, the Southern Ute Indian Tribe has filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado.
Presently, the Southern Ute Indian Tribe is claiming in court that the state government is violating its rights by misinterpreting the gaming compact and its guidelines. The tribe cites several botched attempts to inform gaming officials and the state about the issue, which is what prompted them to decide to file a lawsuit in federal court.
