Brazil’s TRT-4 authorises betting-platform inquiries in labour debt cases
Brazil’s TRT-4 has authorised requests to online betting platforms to check for assets in two labour enforcement cases after conventional searches failed to find enough funds to cover the debts. The judges cited the possibility of funds held in virtual wallets linked to betting platforms and allowed the inquiries as an alternative means of locating assets.
The rulings allow creditors to seek information from betting platforms when conventional searches fail to locate debtors’ assets.
