Spain's Supreme Court rejects lottery agents' appeal against SELAE
Spain's Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal brought by the Plataforma Juego Limpio de Administraciones de Loterías against SELAE. The court found no unfair competition or abuse of economic dependence, and said SELAE's newer sales channels had a legitimate business rationale; the platform's members argued that online sales had reduced their income and visibility.
The ruling leaves SELAE's direct and online lottery sales model in place despite objections from physical lottery agents.
