Texas Class-Action Suit Against Lottery.com Voluntarily Dismissed by Plaintiff
FORT WORTH, Texas, June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lottery.com Inc. (NASDAQ:LTRY, LTRYW)) ("Lottery.com" or the "Company"), a leading technology company in digital lottery and sports entertainment, was notified that Plaintiff Dawn Nettles filed a notice on May 30, 2025 that she is "taking a Nonsuit Without Prejudice Against All Parties Effective Immediately" (the "Notice") in Case No. 25-BC11A-0026; Dawn Nettles vs. Rook TX LP, Gary N. Grief, Lottery.com Inc. (The "Suit").
The suit was originally filed in the 333rd District Court in Harris County, Texas and later moved to Business Court Division 11a. It made a series of unfounded allegations against Lottery.com's operations and conduct in Texas. The Notice, under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 162, terminated the case effective immediately.
Following the dismissal, Gregory Potts, Lottery.com Chief Operating Officer, said:
"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. 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."
