Anápolis court dismisses consumer claim against Novibet over betting losses
A civil court in Anápolis, Brazil, dismissed a consumer’s claim against Novibet, according to a report on the decision. The claimant sought to void bets and obtain damages, alleging financial losses linked to compulsive gambling and inadequate controls. The judge found the bets were made by a capable adult and said responsible-gambling tools did not transfer responsibility for the user’s decisions to the operator.
The ruling addresses the circumstances in which betting operators may be held liable for a customer’s losses.
