Appeals Court Clears Way for Nevada to Temporarily Ban Prediction Market Kalshi

Nevada regulators allege Kalshi operates without gaming licenses and allows underage wagering, prompting a 14-day ban amid ongoing multi-venue litigation over state gambling jurisdiction.

  • On Thursday, a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals panel denied Kalshi's administrative-stay motion, clearing the way for state proceedings after Kalshi warned on March 13 it "faces imminent harm".
  • After a March 2025 cease-and-desist, Nevada regulators began this fight, contending Kalshi operates without proper licenses and pays no gaming taxes, according to the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
  • In a state court on Friday, the First Judicial District Court of Nevada issued a 14 day restraining order barring Kalshi from offering event-based contracts and scheduled a hearing for early next month with April 3 set as the next hearing.
  • Kalshi faces an operational ban in Nevada and the order halts its operations starting today for at least two weeks, while legal observers say the TRO could become a longer preliminary injunction.
  • Across the U.S., states are mounting actions as the CFTC asserts exclusive jurisdiction and over a dozen states, including Arizona, challenge prediction platforms.
