Fresh difficulties hit the government's gambling policy yesterday after a High Court judge allowed existing casinos to bring a legal challenge to the creation of Britain's first Las Vegas-style super-casino as well as 16 other new premises.
Mr Justice Collins ordered that the judicial review challenge, spearheaded on behalf of existing casinos by the British Casino Association, should be heard as a matter of urgency. That hearing, to last three days, is expected to take place before May 25.
