Minas Gerais and Brazil’s sports ministry say federal measure affects ad-ban case
The Minas Gerais government and Brazil’s Ministry of Sport told the Supreme Federal Court that a federal provisional measure banning betting advertising changed the legal context of an association’s challenge to the state decree. The court has not ruled that the case is moot; the minister noted that the measure still requires congressional approval and could lose effect.
The provisional measure may alter the legal context, but congressional approval and the court’s ruling remain unresolved.
