Kentucky Circuit Court Dismisses Objections to Seizure of Gambling Domains
The Kentucky Circuit Court has dismissed all objections raised by the representatives of the 141 gambling domains that are subject to seizure by the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
Last month, the Commonwealth of Kentucky seized a number of gambling domain names because the “domains were being used in connection with illegal gambling activity.” The names included widely popular online destinations such as PokerStars.com, FullTiltPoker.com, BodogLife.com, GoldenPalace.com, Bet21.com, DoylesRoom.com and also Rick Schwartz’ IndianCasino.com.
In the official decision (.pdf), Circuit Court Judge Thomas D. Wingate addressed and dismissed the objections raised by the domains’ legal counsel who were attempting to have the seizure dropped. According to Fox 17, the judge will hear arguments on November 17th before making his final decision.
