Brazil Supreme Court resumes challenge to state lottery rules

Brazil's Supreme Federal Court resumed hearings on 4 April in a challenge by eight states to provisions governing state lotteries under the sports betting law. The case concerns limits allowing a single economic group or legal entity to operate lottery services in only one state and barring a state's lottery from advertising in another. The virtual hearing is scheduled to run until 11 April; several justices have supported the rapporteur's position, some with reservations.
