If he does sue, I hope the courts use the reasoning from a decision that went against McDonalds and other businesses. They would sell gift certificates that “expired.” Someone called them on it and the courts ruled that the certificates had to be honored. I would hope that the courts use the same type of ruling here, and rule that the tokens have to be honored. Now if it were widely publicized that the State would repurchase the tokens because they were not going to be honored after a certain period of time it might be a different matter.

The same principle’s apply, but this wasn’t a business. It was a state toll authority. In essence the state issued money, which it later devalued to zip.
