B.A. Casino Ruling Overturned

KWGS News File Photo

A federal appeals panel rules against the State of Oklahoma  over the casino  to be constructed  by the Kialegee Tribal Town on the south side of Broken Arrow.

The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, yesterday, overturned a lower court's ruling. That ruling in May of 2012,  stopped construction on the casino at 111th South and 129th East Avenue.

The State filed a lawsuit against the tribal group. It  argued  the branch of the Muscogee Creek Nation did not have the authority to build the casino.
