The operator of the Monmouth Park racetrack has appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit after a federal judge rejected its claim for lost sports betting revenue during New Jersey’s lengthy legal battle over the legality of wagering on college and professional sports.
On Wednesday, the appeals court docketed the petition by the New Jersey Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association, which runs Monmouth Park, in National College Athletic Association v. Christie. That move follows a Nov. 16 ruling by U.S. District Judge Michael Shipp, who denied the track’s bid to collect on a $3.4 million injunction bond that was posted by the NCAA and four sports leagues while they were battling the state’s effort to legalize sports betting.
