NY PML Sec 105 soon to be Sec 109:
1. Is not constitutionally defensible.
2. Does not apply to Nassau OTB.
3. Is vague, indefinite and/or overly broad as the terms Easter Sunday and Palm Sunday do not define one and only one Sunday in 2012 etc. See the Gregorian and Julian Calendars.
4. NY PML Sec 105 soon to be Sec 109 violates the rights of New York State Bettors secured by NY Const. Art. 1, Sec. 3.

Open On 1st Palm Sunday, Otb Rakes In $2m
New York City Off-Track Betting made history yesterday, taking bets on Palm Sunday.
Since 1973, when Sunday racing was made legal in New York State, race tracks have been allowed to operate every Sunday except for Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday.
While Aqueduct kept its doors shut, NYCOTB had its betting parlors open despite a letter from the New York State Racing and Wagering Board stating that it couldn't do so.
"We're not a race track," NYCOTB president Ray Casey said. "OTB's business is a simulcasting business."
Bettors responded by wagering an estimated $2 million yesterday on tracks from around the country, including Keeneland in Kentucky and Gulfstream Park in Florida.
