Also on November 10, Robinhood filed a lawsuit against the State of Missouri and Attorney General Catherine Hanaway, following several cease-and-desist orders issued by Hanaway on September 18.

The Missouri AG issued cease-and-desist orders to six prediction market operators, including Robinhood, Crypto.com, Novig, Kalshi, Underdog and Polymarket. 

Since the orders were sent, Crypto.com and Novig have also filed legal action against Missouri, claiming their sports event contracts can only be regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
