A Moscow court has rejected a claim filed by a Russian who tried to collect 566 thousand rubles from Russian Lotto.
A Muscovite who disagreed with the decision filed a complaint with the Moscow City Court.
A Muscovite bought 12 lottery tickets and expected to win, but he was refused, RIA Novosti reports.
The State Sports Lotteries company refused to pay out the winnings.
In response, the man filed a lawsuit for violation of consumer rights.
In court, the plaintiff argued that the wording of the game rules did not provide a clear explanation for the refusal.
The Kuzminsky Court decided that the rules for protecting consumer rights do not apply to lotteries and gambling.
Russian Lotto added that the plaintiff did not win on most of the tickets. He did not even try to collect the sum of 1,610 rubles.
A Muscovite who disagreed with the decision filed a complaint with the Moscow City Court.
