The appeal tabled at the Federal appeal court by the US pro sports betting advocates have hit a hard rock as the jury decided not to the uplifting of the sports betting to be held in New Jersey. Us pro advocates rushed to the Third Court of Appeals in Philadelphia with the aim of having a ruling in their favour but were shocked as the court ruling was backed by 2-1 and in turn giving no chance to the State in trying to circumvent the 1992 Professional & Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA).

This appeal by the New Jersey State has been in progress for nearly a year now. And down the line, the state has faced yet another hit in attempt to give a comprehensive continuity of sport betting in USA. It was the decision of Third Court Judges Marjorie Rendell and Maryanne Trump Barry who made their verdict in favour of US Pro League members and hence giving legalization of sports betting in New Jersey a huge blow.

According to the US Pro League representatives from various leagues such as NFL, MLB and NHL, the verdict undertaken by the Third Court was crucial inthe upholding of the honesty portrayed by various sporting games in the USA.

However, all was not done as the Democratic Senator of New Jersey Ray Lesniak claimed that the representatives of this state will not give up and will continue waging the fight for what they think is their right of eradicating the PASPA verdicts.

Commenting on the issue to US news sources, the senator claimed that there will be three games for the NFL to be staged in Wembley Stadium in London where their fans will bet and watch the games. He claimed that their main agenda would be controlling as well as running betting via fantasy sports.

The president of the American Gaming association Geoff Freeman claimed that he would support Lesniak by claiming that they deserve to take full control of betting as the law is not keen with regulation of illegal betting with current statistics indicating that there are over $140 billion indulged in illegal betting.

From here, New Jersey will head for another appeal at the full court.
