					<description><![CDATA[Ed. Note — Story was updated Tuesday with comment from Pensacola track spokeswoman. State gambling regulators have filed administrative complaints against two racetracks in recent weeks, alleging that they&#8217;ve been offering illegal card games. One complaint was lodged Aug. 17 against Pensacola Greyhound Track &#38; Poker Room, and another was filed last Thursday against the Sarasota Kennel Club, both of which offer varieties of poker. The complaints, however, filed by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR)&#8216;s Division of Pari-Mutuel Wagering, say&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been nearly five months since the Florida Supreme Court heard arguments over whether to expand slot machines in the state. Though the justices never set a timeline on when to expect a decision, the smart money says: Expect something by early next year. That&#8217;s because that&#8217;s when the Legislature will start drawing up the state budget, which could use the extra money that gambling bring to state coffers. And lawmakers earlier this year heard that general revenue estimates are heading downward&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thanks to No Casinos, gambling is on the docket this week in the Florida Supreme Court. On Tuesday, the justices will hear oral argument in a case on whether to expand slot machines in the state. Then on Thursday, legal briefs are due in a review of a proposed constitutional amendment limiting gambling. Both matters involve the Orlando-based gambling expansion opposition group. Should the Supreme Court rule against slots expansion, that would take some steam out of the amendment drive. The proposal would “ensure that Florida voters&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A plethora of high-profile matters is scheduled for argument before the Florida Supreme Court next week. The state&#8217;s justices will consider questions related to gambling, guns, capital punishment and medical malpractice. Another case involves claim bills, passed by lawmakers to pay people for injuries suffered at the hands of government or a public entity. Still two others involve attorneys fighting to keep their law licenses following accusations they set up an opposing lawyer to be arrested on a drunk-driving charge. First up on June&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A far-reaching court ruling that could have opened the door to slot machines at dog and horse tracks across Florida has been reversed. The 1st District Court of Appeal on Friday ruled that slot machines could not be installed at a facility 25 miles west of Tallahassee. The decision was unusual because the same court overturned its own decision from May, when it stated that slot machines were allowed because Gadsden County voters approved a referendum authorizing them.

					<description><![CDATA[The race to succeed term-limited state Rep. Alan Williams in House District 8 &#8212; which takes in part of Tallahassee, including the state Capitol &#8212; has attracted another Democratic hopeful in Clarence Jackson, former mayor of the Gadsden city of Gretna. Jackson, who mounted a brief run in 2014 when it appeared Williams would step away from the Legislature to pursue a seat on the Tallahassee City Commission, told WCTV he plans to file in July. Jackson gave way in deference&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Seminole Tribe of Florida is saying a recent court decision on slot machines could cause &#8220;grave financial harm&#8221; to the tribe. Lawyers for the tribe filed court papers on Tuesday. They want the 1st District Court of Appeal to let the Seminoles weigh in on a far-reaching ruling that could lead to slot machines at several dog and horse tracks. Judges last month ordered state regulators to allow slot machines at a track in the north Florida town of&#8230;]]></description>
