Brazilian courts uphold betting operators’ account controls in two cases
Two Brazilian court decisions found no basis for consumer claims against betting operators in disputes involving multiple accounts and gambling losses, according to the report. One claimant was fined 9% of the claim value for bad-faith litigation; in the Novibet case, the court rejected claims over losses linked to gambling disorder and cited the bettor’s voluntary conduct.
The rulings address how Brazilian courts apply consumer liability rules to account restrictions and responsible-gambling controls.
