You're right. Both are strong arguments for the defense and this is what I was getting at in the other thread that I started.

Basically what I'm saying is, one cannot claim that the results would have been the same had they played. The tag line for the movie Butterfly Effect is Change One Thing, Change Everything , which is true. When you change everything up to some said event, the result of that event can, and more than likely will change. Lets say you had some numbers written down and you... [ More ]

Even if he had played a play slip with those numbers on it and his ticket didn't have them, he couldn't have used the play slip as proof that he intended to play those numbers because on the back of every play slip that I've ever used, it states:

This play slip is not an official ticket or a valid receipt. This play slip also can not serve as proof of game played or a ticket purchase. CHECK YOUR PRINTED TICKET for accuracy BEFORE leaving the retailer. You need the original winning ticket to... [ More ]

We have Communists in our government now too that a lot of people would like to throw eggs at.

He can claim whatever he wants, but proving it is another matter. If they did discriminate against him, maybe it's because he's an a-hole. Maybe he's one of those clowns that shows up close to cut of time, rattles off a long list of numbers, and then refuses to pay for some of them because the clerk didn't get all 50 or 100 numbers right while entering them manually.

Whatever the reason, the lottery allows retailers to set whatever hours they want for selling tickets, and whether they sold an... [ More ]

If the tape can show them selling another lottery ticket after he left..11.4 million will be a small sum. He can claim that they discriminated against him because he is disabled.

Because the 6 numbers printed on the ticket aren't what determines whether or not it's a winning ticket.

His lawyer is probably working on a contingency agreement. A third of $11.5 would make a nice pay day for him plus he would attract more clients who might want to sue retailers if they fail to win a lottery jackpot.

Some years ago, a player sued a retailer and the Ohio lottery when he bought 20 Buckeye5 tickets with the same combination on each one and matched 5 which normally paid $100K each but there was a payout cap of $1M per drawing. Since there was one other winner he ended up getting 2... [ More ]

Really he doesn't want to rely on his Social Security checks, so he isn't working. So like why not go earlier and buy your ticket not at the last second. Now hes worried about money but he's got money to pay for an attorney to fight this thing in court that he'll get the 11.5 million dollars. You know what they say hold one hand out in front of you and one hand behind you and see which one is going to fill up first. In his case I think it will be the one behind him.

I assumed it was his same set of numbers he's played for years and years and of course the very day he did not play them is the very day they hit-LOTTERY KARMA..I guess he can try to sue for that--however it is frustrating to lose out because they refused to let him by his daily ticket.

I agree. Store franchise apparently has deep pockets and they want to reach in them.

May have been store policy to not sell tickets X-amount of minutes before cutoff since computers sometimes get bogged down and tickets get default printed for the next draw which makes some customers angry. Have seen that happen.

Want to buy tickets for a particular draw then show up in plenty of time to purchase them.
