According to CryptoSlate, Novig filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on November 10, challenging the denial of its motion for a preliminary injunction to block New York State from enforcing its gambling laws. The ruling in question applies only to temporary relief, and Novig's federal exchange eligibility remains intact; filing an appeal does not mean the appeal has been granted or the original ruling has been overturned.
