ATTORNEY GENERAL LUTHER STRANGE STATEMENT ON SUPREME COURT
STAY OF VICTORYLAND RULING
(MONTGOMERY) – Attorney General Luther Strange welcomed the Alabama Supreme Court’s
order today to stay the October 5, 2015, Macon County Circuit Court ruling in the State of
Alabama’s case against VictoryLand.
“I am pleased with the Alabama Supreme Court’s stay of the Circuit Court’s order concerning
VictoryLand,” said Attorney General Strange. “The high court’s decision will prevent the release
of all illegal electronic bingo machines seized at VictoryLand until the Supreme Court is able to
rule on the state’s appeal. It is important that the case be allowed to progress through the
entire judicial process so the legality of electronic bingo at VictoryLand can be settled once and
for all.”
