Plaintiff drops lawsuit against Lottery.com in Texas

Key Points
- The company believes a lack of evidence led to the decision to dismiss the suit
- Lottery.com says it affirms fair and transparent operations of gaming in Texas
A lawsuit filed in Texas against Lottery.com has been dismissed by the plaintiff, Dawn Nettles. Lottery.com was notified at the end of May.
In the notice, Nettles opted to “take a Nonsuit Without Prejudice Against All Parties Effective Immediately.”
Nettles had filed the suit in the 333rd District Court in Harris County, Texas. Following the initial filing, the case was moved to Business Court Division 11a.
Lottery.com said the litigation “made a series of unfounded allegations against Lottery.com’s operations and conduct in Texas.”
Company COO Gregory Potts discussed the outcome by saying, “I had the opportunity to meet Ms. Nettles earlier this year when I appeared before the Texas Senate Finance committee. She is a long-time advocate for the fair and transparent operation of Texas lottery games, a belief shared by our company, Lottery.com.
“We believe the decision to seek a voluntary dismissal speaks to the lack of any evidence that Lottery.com was engaged in any wrongdoing.”
Potts went on to explain the company’s participation in the investigation.
He commented, “We have fully cooperated with all investigations into the April 2023 Lotto Texas drawing, and to my knowledge, there has been no finding against the Company of any of the activities claimed in this lawsuit. Defending the Company in this case would have required us to allocate resources that are better spent on delivering shareholder value.
“This marks another important step as we continue to rebuild investor confidence and position the Lottery.com family of brands for sustainable growth.”
