Andrew Hinkes Discusses Prediction Market Litigation and CFTC Authority with Bloomberg Law
Winston & Strawn partner Andrew Hinkes was quoted in a Bloomberg Law article discussing the regulation of prediction markets and the scope of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s authority.

The CFTC filed an amicus brief in North American Derivatives Exchange Inc., v. The State of Nevada, an action currently pending In the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, arguing that event contracts are subject to the Commodities Exchange Act, and thus that state law on the same topic is pre-empted.

Generally, it covers legal issues related to user-generated content and the online sites that host or transmit it.
