Florida Attorney General Bill
McCollum submitted a response in
Seminole Tribe v. Florida House of Representatives, urging the U.S. Supreme Court not to accept a gaming compact case.
The Seminole Tribe is asking the high court to review a Florida Supreme
Court decision that invalidated its gaming compact. At issue is whether Gov. Charlie Crist (R) had the power to authorize certain Class III games.
The tribe has continued to offer the games despite the ruling. McCollum wants the casinos shut down and says the Supreme Court shouldn't get involved in the dispute.
