The Supreme Court scheduled oral hearings relating to the New Jersey case of the Sports betting ban for December 4th 2017, however the resolution on lifting or sustaining PASPA won’t be seen till the primary months of 2018. So the case trundles on but pressure is certainly building for a sustained review of the ban on online sports betting.
