Class action

Brown v. Kalshi Inc.

U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, 2:26-cv-01426

Pending

Listed as pending by two litigation trackers (DeFi Rate, verified Aug. 28, 2026; Bransfield, updated Oct. 21, 2026); neither reports a ruling.

The question

Whether Kalshi's marketing text messages to consumers violated the law the plaintiff invokes (statute not verified; likely a telemarketing or consumer-protection statute).

Nicholas Brown filed a putative consumer class action against Kalshi in late April 2026 over text messages the company sent, according to two prediction-market litigation trackers; one places it in federal court in Seattle. These are the plaintiff's allegations. The statute relied on and any rulings have not been verified.
