Brazil’s Supreme Court fast-tracks challenge to Rio Grande do Sul betting ad law
Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court has ordered an expedited process for a challenge to Rio Grande do Sul’s restrictions on betting advertising. Justice Cármen Lúcia requested information from the state governor and assembly president within five days; the Attorney-General’s Office and prosecutor-general then have up to three days to respond before the case returns to her chambers.
The law’s advertising limits remain under constitutional challenge, with the court gathering submissions before considering interim relief.
