Phil Ivey Gets The Go Ahead To Appeal UK Court Case

Phil Ivey Gets The Go Ahead To Appeal UK Court Case
World Poker Tour

Some good news for Phil Ivey came yesterday as it was announced in a press release from his consulting firm that he has been granted “permission by the Supreme Court to appeal the order made by the Court of Appeal” — meaning that Ivey will be able to take his Crockfords Casino £7.8m cheating scandal case to the UK’s highest court of appeal.

Ivey commented in the release saying: “Last November’s Court of Appeal ruling made no sense to me. The original trial judge ruled that I was not dishonest and none of the three Appeal Court judges disagreed, and yet the decision went against me by a majority of 2 to 1. I am so pleased that the Supreme Court has granted me permission to fight for what I genuinely believe is the right thing to do in my circumstances, and for the entire gaming industry. I look forward to the Supreme Court reversing the decision against me.”

And so, the case rumbles on.
