Kalshi has asked the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit for emergency relief as it tries to protect its sports-related contracts from New York regulators before a temporary enforcement pause expires.
According to Law360, New York officials have agreed to hold off on enforcement action against Kalshi only through July 30. The dispute involves Kalshi, the New York Attorney General’s Office, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and the Second Circuit.
The source does not detail which specific sports-related contracts are at issue or the exact legal basis for New York’s threatened enforcement. It does, however, identify the filing as an emergency request and references attached documents labeled "Kalshi Motion" and "New York Response."
For readers following prediction markets, the immediate point to watch is procedural: whether the Second Circuit grants any short-term protection before the July 30 deadline. The source excerpt does not say how the court has responded so far.
While this case is centered on New York rather than California, it is still notable for anyone tracking Kalshi and the broader regulatory treatment of sports-related prediction market products in the U.S. Any court action in the coming days could clarify whether Kalshi can keep those contracts available while the legal fight continues.
For now, the clearest next milestone mentioned in the source is July 30, when New York’s current pause on enforcement is set to end.
