Seminole Tribe of Florida and West Flagler Parties Announce End of Legal Challenges and Beginning of Partnership to Offer and Promote Jai Alai on the Hard Rock Bet App

Published

on

 

West Flagler Associates LTD, Bonita-Fort Myers Corporation, Southwest Florida Enterprises Inc. and Isadore Havenick (the “West Flagler Parties”) and the Seminole Tribe of Florida have entered into a comprehensive agreement whereby the West Flagler Parties have agreed to refrain from engaging in any future litigation with respect to the Seminole Tribe’s gaming operations and instead will begin a new partnership to offer and promote wagering on Jai Alai on the Hard Rock Bet app.

As part of the agreement, the West Flagler Parties have agreed not to bring or support any future legal challenge to the Seminole Tribe’s gaming operations, including mobile gaming offered by the Seminole Tribe now or in the future. In addition, Jai Alai provided by Battle Court Jai Alai LLC, an affiliate of West Flagler, will be offered on the Hard Rock Bet app. The parties anticipate that the Seminole Tribe will launch Jai Alai on its Hard Rock Bet app in early 2025.

This agreement ends years of disputes between the Seminole Tribe and the West Flagler Parties and avoids future litigation over the Seminole Tribe’s gaming operations.

According to Jim Allen, CEO of Seminole Gaming, “This is truly a win-win agreement for the Seminole Tribe and West Flagler. This agreement establishes a relationship of collaboration among the Seminole Tribe and West Flagler in the State of Florida. Rather than engaging in years of additional litigation, this agreement will allow the parties to work together to promote Jai Alai, which has played an important role in Florida’s gaming landscape for nearly 100 years.”

We are proud that Jai Alai will be featured on the Hard Rock Bet app and we look forward to developing a strong partnership with the Seminole Tribe.”
