Under the Arizona Administrative Code, if a retailer generates a lottery ticket that is refused by a customer and not resold, the ticket is considered property of the retailer, according to the report.

But it was resold. Special circumstances surely, but at least the article doesn't mention that those would invalidate the sale.

I wish the employee good luck.
