As you probably know by now, I’m a member of the “Repeal the Casino Deal” (RTCD) legal team. RTCD is trying to put a question on the November ballot that, basically, would make several forms of casino gambling illegal in Massachusetts. After the Attorney General ruled last September that the question did not qualify for the ballot, RTCD sued, and in the meantime has collected enough signatures so that, if the AG’s ruling is overturned in court, the question will almost certainly be on the ballot this fall (there is one more, rather small signature-gathering hurdle, but there’s little doubt that RTCD will easily surmount it).

The RTCD legal team has filed three briefs with the Supreme Judicial Court; the AG has filed two; and several interveners and amici curiae have filed briefs as well. Oral argument in the case is at 9 a.m. this Monday, May 5. You can read all the briefs in the case at this link, and you can watch oral argument live on Monday morning at this link. Video of the argument will also be archived at the same site.
