You buy a 2line ticket to pool with 1 person but they don't pay the $1Reply
Go back and read what you wrote the first time around. You asked us to play judge and told us what happened, so that's what I'm basing my opinion on. If there's a legal dispute the case will be judged on the facts as presented, and what you think won't matter. Think about any other contract you've agreed to, whether it's signing a lease, buying a car, or whatever. Do you think that either party can change the terms just because they thought the other party wouldn't enforce their rights under the

Can he/she sue me?Reply
For the most part, the lottery's rules are completely irrelevant to any contract that players may have about splitting the proceeds. The only significance of the ticket being a bearer instrument is that proving ownership may be difficult if there's a dispute. If there's a legitimate contract about how to share any proceeds, it will be proving the details of the contract that matters. In the example from the original (and apparently paranoid) poster, I'd say the only requirement of the contract w

If you were part of a lottery Pool that won..Reply
Whether you contributed or not may be the sole issue if you chose not to and you're honest, but in the real world where there's a million dollars or more up for grabs it's the contract that matters. Even if there's not an agreed upon verbal contract there's an implied contract once you start the pool and offer people a chance to participate. If there is an agreed upon verbal contract, it's very existence strongly suggest the people involved aren't smart enough to have covered all the important d

Is it wrong to...?Reply
The contract (which in this case would have to be argued as an oral contract) is simply this: Buy the person a ticket with the money they gave you. That's it. The supposed contract was fulfilled. There is no obligation for the person buying the tickets to not buy a ticket with the same numbers. They have every right to buy a ticket with the same numbers. You own the ticket, not the numbers on the ticket.

I just went back into my post to delete 1/2 of it. Too late! (got a knock at the door) I just read the other posts again and I don't want to get into a battle about contracts. I think some people are going way overboard with this whole idea. I can almost guarantee that no court would rule that this was a legal contract. People make promises to each other all the time and can't prove them. Here is a great quote from Law.com about a verbal contract: an agreement made with spoken wo
