“That is correct from my understanding. Most, if not all, states allow someone to remain anonymous if the person has a compelling reason for anonymity. Without going into details, I have such a reason which I’m certain would be deemed compelling.”
You maybe correct about that as well as the trusts. The real issue is how can the lottery maintain credibility that it actually has paid off winners? I believe that is why remaining anonymous can be an issue. I also wonder if a court might find that winners must be disclosed under some variation of an open meetings statute? Who knows? BTW, I didn’t win last night.
I won last night ... I didn’t spend a dollar to have someone else reap the benefits. So you see, I won at least a dollar.
