Court backs Mashantucket casino in Pennsylvania
Wednesday, July 18, 2007  

mashantucket
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Monday rejected a challenge to the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation's proposed casino in Philadelphia.

The tribe is working with a group of investors to open a Foxwoods casino in South Philadelphia. The group won a license from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board for the project.

A competitor sued the board, alleging procedural irregularities. But the court, by a 4-1 vote, upheld the license [Majority Opinion | Dissenting Opinion].

The tribe hopes to break ground on the casino later this summer and open the facility by 2009.
