Florida, Seminole Tribe reach gambling deal
Under the terms of the settlement, the tribe will get to keep blackjack tables until 2030.
“There’s no loser to this,” said Barry Richard, an attorney representing the Seminoles. “It gives the tribe finality and the security of knowing the games will continue. The state will continue to get a few hundred million.”
Jonathan Zachem, secretary of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation, said his agency was pleased that an agreement had been reached. He said it “ensures the continuity of the current Seminole compact and does not allow for any expansion of gaming.”
The tribe and the state signed an initial deal in 2010 that permitted the tribe to have blackjack at its casinos as well as slot machines at most of its locations. But the blackjack provision expired in 2015 and triggered a lawsuit between the state and the Seminoles.
