A circuit split between the Third and Ninth Circuits has emerged over whether CFTC-regulated sports event contracts qualify as derivatives under the Commodity Exchange Act and whether federal authority preempts state gambling enforcement. New Jersey filed a petition for certiorari in early September 2026 after the Ninth Circuit upheld Nevada’s ability to restrict such contracts offered by platforms like Kalshi. Traders assess the likelihood of a grant by late July 2026 as low because the petition arrived after that date and the cases remain at the preliminary-injunction stage. The Supreme Court’s decision to review will hinge on the strength of the split, the procedural posture, and competing docket priorities; any grant would resolve jurisdictional questions between federal derivatives oversight and state gaming regulation but would not require the Court to reach final merits.
