The Dec. 11 vote that will decide the fate of a proposed Slidell-area casino will move forward without legal impediment after the state Supreme Court on Monday reversed an appeal court’s decision that could have scuttled the election.

The state Supreme Court, which last week issued a stay on all legal action surrounding the casino referendum, has decided that any legal questions of the constitutionality of the vote will be decided after the election if St. Tammany voters allow Peninsula Pacific Entertainment to build a $325 million casino and hotel called Camellia Bay at the foot of the Interstate 10 twin spans near Slidell.
