Fux to examine the challenge AGU's response still pending

Sep 28

TV Brasil's September 29 recap says organizations representing betting platforms asked the Supreme Court on Monday to overturn the provisional measure banning operation and advertising of online gambling. The Attorney General's Office requested seventy-two hours to respond, and Luiz Fux will review the case. The passage reports no ruling. It does not state the applicants' fiscal-impact or illegal-platform-migration arguments.

Associations representing betting and lotteries seek suspension of the provisional measure until Congress decides its fate or the Supreme Court rules on their action. They question the lack of a fiscal-impact estimate and warn that customers may move to illegal platforms. The attorney general's office asks for 72 hours for itself and the presidency to respond. No judicial suspension is reported. TV Brasil's September 29 recap identifies Luiz Fux as the justice who will examine the case and repeats the AGU's request for 72 hours. It reports no ruling suspending the ban. Manuela Castro's September 30 follow-up again identifies the operators' existing action and its requested suspension until Congress decides the measure or the Supreme Court judges the case. She separately reports Flamengo seeking amicus participation, expressly clarifying that the club did not bring its own action. The ban remains effective at airtime; no suspension ruling is reported.
