					<description><![CDATA[An appellate court was on the verge of rejecting an appeal of a lower court&#8217;s decision that entertainment devices known as “pre-reveal” games are in fact illegal slot machines. Dockets at the 1st District Court of Appeal show that Gator Coin II—the Jacksonville company that distributes the games—was ordered to show &#8220;why this appeal should not be dismissed&#8221; because its filings weren&#8217;t in order. An attorney for the company, Bryan E. DeMaggio, responded in a 21-page court filing—including exhibits—that lawyers &#8220;inadvertently neglected&#8221;&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As expected, a Tallahassee judge has entered a written order following his decision last month that he had gotten it “wrong the first time” and said games known as “pre-reveal” are in fact illegal slot machines. Circuit Judge John Cooper this week filed a &#8220;final declaratory judgment,&#8221; which allows Gator Coin II—the Jacksonville company that distributes the games—to now appeal to the 1st District Court of Appeal. In March, Cooper issued a previous judgment that “pre-reveal” games weren’t slots because players had to “press a ‘preview’ button before&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Lawyers for the Seminole Tribe of Florida and companies behind what are known as “pre-reveal” games—a name they apparently disdain—will appear Monday afternoon in a Tallahassee courtroom. Circuit Judge John Cooper agreed to hear argument on why he should reconsider his previous ruling that the stand-alone consoles aren’t illegal slot machines. The devices in question use a specific software known as &#8220;Version 67.&#8221; The machines—offered mostly at bars and taverns—look and play like a slot machine, Cooper had reasoned, but don’t fit the legal definition of gambling because the&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The companies behind what are known as “pre-reveal” games say they&#8217;re &#8220;losing money every day&#8221; even after a Tallahassee judge ruled the stand-alone consoles aren&#8217;t illegal slot machines. Gator Coin II and Blue Sky Games are asking Circuit Judge John Cooper to lift an automatic stay of his March decision. Cooper, however, already has agreed to reconsider the ruling, setting a hearing next Monday in the Leon County Courthouse. The devices—offered mostly at bars and taverns—look and play like a slot machine, Cooper had reasoned,&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Florida&#8217;s never-ending casino wars are heating up again, in the press and in court. In a scathing op-ed in the Miami Herald, columnist Fabiola Santiago threw shade at Genting, the Malaysian casino operator, over their recent move to sue Miami-Dade County and state attorney Katherine Fernandez-Rundle, saying the move &#8220;smacks of desperation.&#8221; &#8220;Somebody ought to tell Genting that Miami is not Malaysia or Bimini,&#8221; wrote Santiago. In this country, courts don’t step in and legislate, nor do they pre-empt police and prosecutors&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A crucial trial over the future of gambling in Florida could be pushed back until the fall. Attorneys for both the Seminole Tribe of Florida and the state on Wednesday asked a federal judge to push back a two-week trial until October. The trial now scheduled for July will determine whether or not the Seminoles can continue to have blackjack tables at their casinos. The tribe filed the lawsuit last October after a 5-year deal with the state expired. Gov.&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Just as it always does in recent years, a legislative effort to revisit the state&#8217;s gambling laws bloated and sunk in the waning days of a legislative session. After months of negotiations, a proposed new &#8220;compact,&#8221; or gambling agreement, between the state and the Seminole Tribe of Florida failed Friday when the House indefinitely postponed the measure. But Florida has a history of failure, at least in recent years, when it comes to addressing gambling. The state&#8217;s inaction even caused&#8230;]]></description>
