Gov. Dannel Malloy’s administration has filed a federal lawsuit aimed at allowing the Moehagan and Mashantucket Pequot Indian tribes to move ahead with their joint East Windsor casino. The lawsuit, if successful, would put to rest uncertainty over the project caused by the U.S. Department of Interior. That agency is required to review and signe off on the changes to the tribes’ existing gambling compact with the state. That will allow the tribes to team up on a third casino without jeopardizing the slots revenue each pays Connecticut from their respective Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods gambling destinations, built in the 1990s in the southeastern section of the state.
