Rules:
The employee paid for the ticket.
End of story.
Circle K shouldn't be able to win the lottery. Seems crazy. I know the employee kinda cheated, I guess, but I'd rather see the employee get the money than his employer.
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.
I'll actually give Circle K some credit. They state that any unclaimed ticket is property of the retailer, but are allowing the courts to make the decision. It would be super easy for them just to point to policy and say tough shit.
