Can't see him winning the lawsuit and CA Lottery paying it. Lotteries require a winning ticket be presented, and he only presented one.

Winner who claimed half of $395 million Mega Millions jackpot sues California Lottery for other halfReply
I can smell BS when he said he'd been playing the same numbers for 30 years. Next BS alarm went off when he said his kids picked the numbers which is the most ridiculous thing in the lawsuit. The Mega Millions matrix only had 1-56 until October 2013 and was changed to 1-75 towards the end of October 2013. So how could he have played the numbers 66 70 for 30 years when they didn't even exist until 11 years ago? I'd dismiss the lawsuit and laugh in his face on that alone.

Lotto Texas winner sues betting company and couriers, claims he was cheated out of $100M jackpotReply
My thought about the lawsuit (the one filed by the winner of $7.5 million jackpot who's claiming that it should have been $102.5 million) is, is what the London based company did legal? That's the sole question at hand; if it's legal, then he doesn't have a leg to stand on. If it's not, then he's got a great case. Either way, dude just made generational wealth, so there's really no way he doesn't end up a winner... unless he acts like all those lottery winners who spent his money on stupid stuff
