Pennsylvania lawsuit accuses DraftKings and FanDuel of harmful micro-betting design
Two plaintiffs have sued DraftKings, FanDuel, Genius Sports, the NFL and five sportsbook employees in Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas, alleging that micro-betting caused financial losses and worsened gambling problems. The suit, filed on Tuesday, alleges design defects, failure to warn, negligence, unfair trade practices and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The claims have not been established in court.
The case could affect operators and data partners facing claims about micro-betting products and their alleged effects on customers.
