Interesting story about the lottery and lawsuits: “An Arkansas judge has decided that a woman who won $1 million off of a lottery ticket is entitled to her winnings even though she threw away the ticket thinking she didn’t win, and another woman claimed the winnings after taking the ticket from the trash. Although the judge decided the purchaser never “abandoned her right to claim the winnings,” the finder of the ticket plans on appealing the decision. “ Jeannie Nuss, Atlanta Journal-Constitution 05/03/2012
