NASHUA The mysterious New Hampshire woman claiming to have won the $560 million Powerball ticket sold last month is losing about $14,000 a day in interest, according to the attorney who is trying to fast-track a court hearing in the case.
The woman has not yet submitted her winning ticket to the New Hampshire Lottery Commission in the hopes that a Hillsborough County Superior Court judge will allow her identity to remain a secret even though she already signed her name on the winning ticket purchased at Reeds Ferry Market in Merrimack.
New Hampshire Lottery Commission rules and regulations require that a winner complete and sign the back of a winning Powerball ticket before being able to claim the prize. Had the ticket been signed by the trustee of a designated trust, the winner could have maintained her privacy.
She has filed a complaint for declaratory judgement and injunctive relief, and a hearing was set to take place on Feb. 21. However, attorney Steven Gordon of the law firm Shaheen and Gordon, who is representing the lottery winner referred to as Jane Doe in court documents, has filed a request to reschedule the hearing to Tuesday.

Kind of like the argument that you have to “pay” for Tax Rate Cuts.
yup
Typical lawyerly baloney. If the best I can get for a five thousand dollar money market account over a period of three years is about fifty cents, I don’t see her getting fourteen thousand a day.
Heh. BINGO
At my age I don’t want it-———would have it all put in my kids’ names.

The difference is that they've learned how to live with great wealth. She hasn't.
Plenty of help, but who can she trust?
