Had BetOnSports never have gone public; had BetOnSports still been run by Gary Kaplan instead of a British Board of Directors; BetOnSports would probably still be up and running.
The U.S. decided to drop their appeal on the Antigua case, and instead withdraw their GATTS commitments with regards to gambling. They have thus, acknowledged their previous commitment and acknowledged their violation of that commitment. When they formally withdraw, all WTO members may claim punative damages against the U.S.
David Curruthers wrote to the BoS board and the U.K. asking for intervention in the case, given the U.S. laws were in contradiction to U.S. trade agreements with the U.K., Antigua and Costa Rica.
What does the BoS board of directors do instead? Plead BoS PLC guilty, and agree to provide witnesses for the prosecution *against* David Carruthers and Gary Kaplan.
Making them the biggest bunch of arses I've ever seen. It was their fault directly that BoS suspended all operations instead of doing a clean windup of U.S.-facing operations. Now they are willing weapons of the enemy in a farcical charade against U.K. online gambling interests. All so they can go golfing in the U.S.
To bad the Queen of England doesn't behead people anymore.
