    FYI: The Superior Court has stayed all further seizure hearings until they rule on it.

    Don’t know how busy the Kentucky Superior court is, but in most Commonwealths, the Superior Court is the real workhorse for the system, and are generally pretty loaded down.

    They might fast track the thing too, but I don’t think they would do that.
    I’d say at least 6 months to year depending on whether the Attorneys involved want to maximize the time, or just get it over with.

    I believe the initial process involves 3 Judges, and if they don’t prevail there they can go one step further, and have a full review by the entire panel of Superior Court Judges.

    From there of course, there’s always the Kentucky Supreme Court! LOL
    Actually it should be in a Federal Court anyway. Just my leh opinion though.

    Anyway, these should be REAL Judges, :roflmao: , not some Traffic Court level Circuit Judge trying make International rulings, :sarcasm: ,so with any luck, they will just toss the Lower Court Ruling for the GARBAGE it was.

    Is there anything we can do to ‘influence’ the decision as it relates to the Kentucky Court of Appeals?

    No, there is nothing to be done, and if you tried, you’d probably get arrested.
    The Attorneys know what to do, and how to guide the thing.

    I loved the one attorney’s reasoning when he said this:

    The stay was sought by the Interactive Media Entertainment and Gaming Association. IMEGA’s general counsel, Ed Leyden, told Online Casino Advisory the stay was necessary to prevent damage that might be undoable from occurring while the order was being appealed. He said, “Once you squeeze the toothpaste from the tube, it’s not really possible to put it back in.”

    :roflmao:

    Often they will stay a lower court ruling in Superior court, so it’s not like a really amazing feat, but it certainly takes the immediate heat off everyone until they get a REAL ruling.

    Also understand, most Appeals LOSE, but this is so far out in left field, I personally think they will get the Lower court ruling tossed for a variety of reasons.

    If that was the case I don’t think we even be in this situation, but we will see how it all works out :tongue:

    Considering how they got sideswiped by something so outrageous to begin with, they did pretty good, IMO.

    They probably knew the Circuit Judge would not reverse himself, so they made sure they got all of right things filed in the Lower court proceedings so they could “Preserve” them for a solid Appeal.

    Who knows though? All of the Superior Court Judges might own Race Horses, and want to keep the money in town! icon_yikes.gif
