As reported by the Sacramento Business Journal: "A Sacramento Superior Court
judge ruled late Tuesday that California's multi-state MEGA Millions game is
legal and authorized to operate in California. "Judge Lloyd Connelly also
ruled the Lottery Commission is operating lawfully and that the MEGA
Millions operation in California does not require specific legislative
approval. "The court acknowledged that a conflict may exist regarding
different jackpot claim periods among partner states, and the court gave the
Lottery a year to address this issue. The suit was brought against the
Lottery Commission by the California Coalition Against Gambling Expansion."
