Every lottery ticket has the phrase, This ticket is a bearer instrument written on the back of it. It should belong to the manager. He signed it.

Hasn't Cheeks been know to file frivolous lottery lawsuit (s) in the past? If so I have a quick solution, if feasible like casinos do. Ban him from playing!

DC Lottery offers compensation for players affected by computerized draw errorReply
$10 reported compensation is a joke compared to how much money was played on numbers that had 0 chance of winning in Pick2, Pick3, Pick4 and Pick5?! Shame on DC Lottery! I smell a lawsuit by smart players on coming....

Arizona lottery retailer employee sued after buying $12.8 million ticket knowing it was a winnerReply
After reading a couple of other news articles, am I understanding this correctly? The Circle K corporate office vs a single owned Circle K store filed the lawsuit. And the individual store manager who claimed the ticket is not the owner or lessee of the individual store? Who owns or leases this individual store? And the lottery system computer inventory is separate from the store sales inventory?

Thousands of Norway lottery players mistakenly told they won millionsReply
Anyone can file a lawsuit. The vendor took the correct action by have a high level vendor rep step down. Unless a person received a check, cashed it, and the state or country tried to take it back at that point, the lawsuits will lose. It is a calculation error and a reasonable person does not spend money until it is in the bank.

Perhaps part of the settlement was also to pay the legal fees. Would make sense in all this since now the law firm carries the account as the trust holder. They may temporarily regulate it .. which could be another lawsuit on her hands to get the funds settled for her use. There was a lawyer in Louisiana that made a killing on putting ppls insurance settlements into trust and he wiped it out . Here's hoping she can enjoy the big payout
