Cherokee Tribe Sues Over Arkansas Anti-Casino Amendment
Briefly

"Cherokee Nation Entertainment is firmly committed to protecting its constitutional rights, defending its lawfully issued casino license, and safeguarding the substantial investments it made in good faith based on the establishment of the Pope County casino license under Amendment 100 in 2018."
"Amendment 104 undermines foundational legal rights and stands to interfere with several binding contractual obligations," Cherokee attorney Bart Calhoun said, emphasizing the tribe's legal contest against the amendment.
"The tribe was contesting the amendment on several legal fronts to preserve our client's rights and investments throughout the legal proceedings," stated Calhoun, highlighting the legal complexities involved.
"According to Oklahoma Voice, Cherokee Entertainment is challenging the amendment on the basis of due process, contracts, equal protection, and the takings clause of the U.S. Constitution."
