As the legislative term comes to a close, committees in both houses of the New York state legislature have advanced bills proposing legislation requiring registration fees for commercial operators and a prohibition against players under 18 years of age. Legislation would also bar contests based on amateur sports at the collegiate level and horse racing.
Should the legislation fail to pass, the First Department will be taking up the case in the fall. We will update the reader when more information comes available.
