Summary
The NFL filed an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court to grant New Jersey's cert petition against Kalshi, arguing that sports event contracts on prediction markets threaten game integrity and lack CFTC safeguards. The league cited $1.8 billion of NFL-related trading volume on the first Sunday of the season. Separately, 39 states and DC filed their own brief supporting New Jersey, calling the CFTC-state conflict a 'national turf war.' Kalshi's response deadline is Nov. 9. This escalates the legal battle over whether prediction markets fall under state or federal jurisdiction, with the Supreme Court now the central venue.
