Lottery winner demonstrates the right way to claim a big jackpotReply
No, I don't think that was the case. That only typically happens in the area of lawsuits because of the amount of work that has to be done to be successful in court, and the likelihood that they may not win or get the judgement amount they were seeking. When it comes to using lawyers for business, tax, estate, and patent planning, you can hire them by the hour. Just be sure to review and endorse the compensation contract beforehand...after all, you are dealing with lawyers. But on the real, don'

Wtg! I'm glad that the lottery rep took you complaint seriously and will be talking to these stores about the contract that they signed and the rules.

Having ATMs that cash tickets is an idea the lottery commissions could discuss after receiving thousands of complaints from players that couldn't cash $100 tickets. Ohio has a contract with a bank to pay winners over $600. The terminals are programmed to print cash vouchers the players take to the bank. If there is any cost involved into programming terminals to print out vouchers under $600, the cost should be charged to the stores making all the excuses why they can't cash them.

Can My Comapny Sue us For the Winnings?Reply
Re: scanning tickets Are you scanning tickets and emailing them to people out of state? If so, is this legal? Good question! You can't use the mail to buy tickets for and accept money from people across state lines, but can you use email? Then is the contract binding? Many years ago I belonged to a company pool in Chicago and I lived in NH. I never thought about it.

convicted felons and jackpot winningsReply
according to most state lottery rules if you 18 or older you may purchase a lottery ticket. It's a legal binding contract a wager if you will with the state. If you were a convict or are on probation and the probate rules say you cant gamble then you should wait until your probation period is over. Why break the law.

splitting the jackpot prize with family members.Reply
No kidding. What you described in your original posting placed conditions on the gift hence it is no longer a gift , it has now become a contract. You are giving (paying) for consideration as far as the tax situation is concerned. A true gift caries no conditions. I have been down this road a ways and spent many billable hours on lawyers having it explained to me. Besides, the crooks at the IRS will do everthing in their power to discredit any aggrement you present them with since all they
