If approved, this could allow the platform to offer political event contracts without contest. On May 5, CFTC lawyers filed an unopposed motion to dismiss with the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, indicating a potential settlement with Kalshi.

In a joint filing, Kalshi agreed to cover its own costs, court fees and attorneys' fees if the motion to dismiss is granted.
