AG Nessel has secured a preliminary injunction against KalshiEx, LLC (Kalshi), halting the prediction market company from unlawfully offering online sports wagers in Michigan. The preliminary injunction requires Kalshi to maintain geofencing to block Michigan residents and those within Michigan’s borders from having access to its illegal sports betting contracts.
“Kalshi long attempted to pass itself off as a legitimate gaming operation in our state, and I am relieved that this order further protects Michigan residents from its predatory, unlicensed practices. My office will continue to defend Michiganders and enforce our gaming laws, which ensure gambling revenue is regulated and distributed back into our communities.” – AG Nessel
