iMEGA Announces Appeal Plans
On Tuesday, the Interactive Media Entertainment and Gaming Association (iMEGA) announced that it would appeal the recent dismissal of its suit challenging the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA). While the initial judge granted iMEGA standing to challenge the law, the judge failed to find convincing reasons the case, as filed, should proceed. iMEGA disagreed and announced its plans to appeal, and Tuesday's notice to the court is the first step on that path.
