Connecticut Officially Launches Retail Sports Betting Monday

CT Lottery launches retail sportsbooks.

  • Sports Haven officially became the first retail sportsbook in Connecticut after Gov. Ned Lamont placed the first bet at the grand opening on Monday.
  • Connecticut has already successfully launched their online sports betting industry, and more retail sportsbooks are expected to open in the following weeks.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The first retail sportsbook in Connecticut, Sports Haven, opened in conjunction with the Connecticut Lottery on Monday in New Haven.

The launch of the retail sportsbook comes a week after the successful launch of Connecticut’s online sports betting industry.

Governor Ned Lamont, as well as other notable Connecticut leaders, were present at the grand opening event Monday afternoon. Gov. Lamont placed the first bet at Sports Haven, a $20 wager on the New York Giants over the Kansas City Chiefs next weekend.

Gov. Lamont says that Connecticut’s newly regulated and legalized sports betting industry is a fun addition to the state economy.

The president of the Connecticut Lottery, Greg Smith, expects the new industry to lead to record tax revenues from the lottery, which contributed about $400 million yearly to the State General Fund even prior to the expansion of the sports betting industry.

The tax rate on sports betting revenue in Connecticut is 13.75%.

Smith says that retail sports betting venues at Bobby V’s Restaurant & Sports Bar locations in Stamford and Windsor Locks will start accepting wagers in the following days, which will bring more options to sports bettors.

Lamont placed the first in-person sports wager at the Mohegan-owned Mohegan Sun on Sept. 30, which marked the beginning of the limited launch of the sports betting industry in Connecticut. Lamont then layed a wager at the nearby Pequot-owned Foxwoods Resorts Casino. A soft launch…

Healthcare Law Update: October 2021

[co-author: Kathryn Isted ]

Discovery

Return of Privileged Materials Required Due to “Callous Disregard” of Federal Prosecutors

Kathryn Isted

In Harbor Healthcare System, L.P. v. United States, 5 F.4th 593 (5th Cir. 2021), the court of appeals ruled that the district court abused its discretion in refusing to exercise its equitable jurisdiction over a healthcare provider’s motion for return of property, in which the provider sought the return of privileged materials seized by the United States during a pre-indictment criminal investigation led by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Texas. On May 18, 2017, the government executed search warrants on Harbor Healthcare System (Harbor), seizing hundreds of boxes of paper records and 3.59 terabytes of data contained in multiple computers, hard drives, mobile devices and email accounts. The materials seized included the computer, email account, iPhone and paper documents of Eric Sprott, Harbor’s general counsel and director of compliance, and consequently, contained substantial information protected by the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. The government assembled a “filter team” from “another division of the Eastern District” to review the seized materials for privileged information. After Harbor repeatedly sought the return of its privileged documents from the government to no avail, Harbor initiated an action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas on Sept. 7, 2018, and filed a motion for the return of property under Rule 41(g) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.

In that action, at the district court’s insistence, the parties proposed a “privilege-screening plan.” During the test phase of that plan, Harbor identified 3,843 emails from Sprott’s account as privileged and discovered that “a significant number of privileged documents” had already been transferred from the government’s filter team to its civil and criminal investigators. Meanwhile, the government moved to…

Bellator 272 Adds Vinicius De Jesus vs. Levan Chokheli

December’s Bellator 272 card continues to grow, with a welterweight fight the latest addition.

Sources confirmed to Cageside Press on Wednesday that Vinicius De Jesus (9-4) will face Levan Chokheli (9-1, 1NC) at the event, which will see the promotion return to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT.

Setanta Sport’s Giorgi Kokiashvili was first to report the news.

Georgia’s Chokheli made his promotional debut at Bellator 260 earlier this year, suffering the first loss of his career against Kyle Crutchmer. Starting his pro career in 2016, Chokheli ran up an impressive win streak on the regional circuit, and is the latest in a wave of Georgian fighters to storm the major promotions.

De Jesus will be stepping into the cage for the first time this year, having competed in grappling of late. In 2020, he lost back-to-back fights under the Bellator and LFA banners, and will look to halt that losing streak against Chokheli. Overall, the Brazilian is 3-2 under the Bellator banner, and is also a former CES MMA welterweight champion.

A Pandemic Story: Brooklyn Tenants Who Stopped Paying Rent

It’s Thursday. We’ll look at a building in Brooklyn where tenants stopped paying the rent. We’ll also look at a new art installation that projects images onto a huge “shoreline” of oyster shells.

The four-story apartment building at 1616 President Street in Brooklyn is notable for the tall letters spelling out “Ultra Court” that are etched over the front door and flanked by elaborate columns. The building is also notable for the anger percolating among the tenants — anger that has boiled over into a rent strike by about half the residents.

Plagued by problems like cockroach infestations and leaky ceilings, they maintain that repairs have been neglected for too long by a landlord who is described by city officials as one of the most negligent in New York. The city has even gone to housing court, accusing the landlord of falsely claiming that dozens of violations had been addressed and of filing “baseless” eviction papers against tenants.

The landlord maintains that the building has been properly maintained and that tenants have sometimes blocked access to their apartments, preventing maintenance people from doing repairs.

Simmering tensions between landlords and renters are not uncommon in New York, but the rent strike on President Street in Crown Heights has a pandemic-related twist. The outbreak has mobilized tenants to take on their landlords. As my colleague Mihir Zaveri explains, the protest on President Street began in May 2020 when a nationwide protest with the rallying cry “cancel rent” demanded housing relief.

It’s not clear how many other protests that were inaugurated then have lasted. Some landlords — also coping with the financial pain of the pandemic — have struck deals with tenants for reduced payments on back rent. But there’s no question that in…

Jason Tartick Dishes on His Upcoming Wedding to Kaitlyn Bristowe, Including His Non-Negotiable Asks (EXCLUSIVE)

While the success rate for the couples who get engaged on The Bachelor or The Bachelorette isn’t particularly high, several pairs from the franchise have gotten together and forged strong relationships off the show.

Former lead Kaitlyn Bristowe and Bachelorette Season 14 fan favorite Jason Tartick didn’t cross paths in front of the cameras. Instead, they met in early 2019 when Jason appeared on Kaitlyn’s podcast, Off the Vine, to discuss his time on The Bachelorette.

Following the podcast appearance, the reality stars began dating, and they’ve since chronicled their relationship milestones on social media.

Fast-forward to 2021, and Jason proposed while the two were recording another episode of the podcast.

Now, the beloved Bachelor Nation duo is in the throes of planning their wedding — amidst Kaitlyn’s Bachelorette co-hosting duties and as Jason continues to host his own podcast, Trading Secrets.

Distractify spoke exclusively with Jason at Mohegan Sun’s 25th anniversary party at TAO Mohegan Sun about his wedding plans, and he shared how he really felt about being named in Ryan Fox’s Bachelorette playbook.

Jason Tartick and Kaitlyn Bristowe are ironing out their wedding details, and they have “an idea” of when they’ll say “I do.”

Though the couple have taken a few months to soak in the excitement of their engagement, Jason and Kaitlyn have now started planning their upcoming nuptials.

The pair had a lot to think about when it came to selecting a venue. The Bachelorette alums reside together in Nashville, but Jason is a proud Buffalo native, while Kaitlyn originally hails from Canada.

“We are thinking Nashville now but we are still looking at other venues,” Jason shared exclusively with Distractify, before discussing their ideal date. “We are thinking later next year. We haven’t actually set an exact date but we have an idea……

Iranian Proxies Lose in Iraq’s Elections, Threatening Violence

10/25/2021 Iraq (International Christian Concern) – Following the preliminary results of Iraq’s October 10 parliamentary elections, Iranian proxies lost a significant portion of their seats and influence, inciting accusations of fraud and threats against Iraq’s Independent High Election Commission (IHEC) and the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI).q

Iraqi Cardinal Louis Raphael I Sako responded to the rising political tensions, calling on “all politicians to adhere to national and brotherly values, to give priority to the public interest over partisan agendas, and to sit together in a calm civilized dialogue for understanding and ending the current tension.” He urged restraint for threats to violence and arms and to prioritize the formation of the new government to “avoid the situation slipping to its worst possible outcome”.

Iranian proxies are likely to escalate violence or other forms of coercion against those with a perceived role in their political downturn, according to an article by Katherine Lawlor with the Institute for the Study of War. Those accused include the IHEC, UNAMI, United States, United Nations, Israel, and the United Arab Emirates. Iran’s parliamentary proxy, the Conquest Alliance which includes political wings of the Badr Organization and a US-designated terrorist group AAH, only received 16 seats. In 2018, the coalition had a high of 47 seats.

Lawlor continues on to suggest that a quick government formation would be most beneficial to domestic stability and US interests, so long as the leading member Muqtada al-Sadr can efficiently create a coalition. She writes, “In this scenario, Iran will likely tolerate a second Kadhimi government to retain stability but will allow some of its proxies, like Kata’ib Hezbollah, to directly, and sometimes violently, oppose that government. If a newly emboldened, Sadrist-led government elects to crack down on proxy militias, as Sadr threatened to do in his victory…
