Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court resumes case on 1941 gambling ban
Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court has resumed a case on whether the 1941 prohibition on operating games of chance remains compatible with the 1988 Constitution. At least 2,728 cases are on hold pending the ruling, which the court will hear alongside challenges involving the country’s betting law; no hearing date has been set.
The ruling could determine how courts handle thousands of pending cases involving gambling machines and related rules.
