A New York Appeals Court granted an emergency stay on an injunction against daily fantasy sports operators FanDuel and DraftKings on Friday, hours after New York Supreme Court Justice Manuel Mendez ordered the companies to cease business in the state.
DraftKings will continue operating in New York while the Attorney General’s actions against daily fantasy sports operators are under appeal, a company spokesperson confirmed to FOXBusiness.com. A FanDuel spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether it would resume operating in New York during the stay on the injunction.
