A former DraftKings executive has appealed to the First Circuit to overturn a judge's order that severely restricts the type of work he can do after joining sports betting rival Fanatics in Los Angeles. The executive argues that the Massachusetts federal judge should have applied California's worker-friendly laws to the trade secrets dispute. In a separate legal development, New York's top appeals court has revived a lawsuit brought by FanDuel investors, who claim they were deprived of profits from a 2018 merger with Flutter's U.S. arm. The court disagreed with a lower court's interpretation of Scottish law, ruling in favor of FanDuel founders and over 100 former employees and early investors suing former board members for breach of fiduciary duty.
