Kate C. Lowenhar-Fisher was recently quoted in the April 23rd article on sportshandle.com, “More Expert Predictions for the Supreme Court Sports Betting Case Decision.”
As one of eight expert predictions on the outcome of Supreme Court sports betting case, Kate predicted the following: “SCOTUS strikes down two parts of PASPA that are unconstitutional: (1) The disparate treatment (grandfathering) of states violates the equal sovereignty doctrine; and (2) The delegation of regulatory power to private sports leagues violates the private nondelegation doctrine. The unconstitutional parts of PASPA are severable, so the rest of the law remains intact, and we have mass confusion! The vote: 6:3. Ginsburg, Sotomayor, and Kagan dissent. Concurring opinions among the six lead to serious head-scratching.”
