ABERT seeks amicus role in challenge to Rio Grande do Sul betting-ad law
ABERT asked Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court to join as an amicus curiae in a case challenging Rio Grande do Sul’s restrictions on betting advertising. The challenge was brought by ANJL, which argues that the state law exceeds its authority; ABERT said the ruling could affect its member broadcasters, while the federal attorney general has also supported suspending the law.
The court challenge concerns state restrictions that could affect advertising arrangements for betting companies and broadcasters.
