Judge Timothy Fox is expected to rule on the matter of Legends Resort and Casino and their entitlement to open a new casino in Pope County. The ruling will be made public in the upcoming days.

Arkansas has four casinos. Half were approved at the state's racetracks. Quapaw Nation received a license to build Saracen Casino Resort. The commission that regulates thoroughbred and greyhound racing handed the license for a fourth casino to Gulfside Casino Partnership. However, the commission decided to award the licence to Cherokee Nation Businesses LLC/Legends Resort and Casino LLC toward the end of 2021. The company had a problem building the casino because its license was put on hold following Gulf side's appeal. It also argued that Legends does not possess the necessary experience needed to operate a casino venue.
