We appreciate the numerable economic pressures that impact it,” the high court said. “If a change, however, in the long-accepted definition of pari-mutuel wagering is to be made that change must be made by the people of this Commonwealth through their duly-elected legislators, not by an appointed administrative body and not by the judiciary.” This story will be updated.
