The ruling effectively ends McTurk’s lawsuit that sought approximately
FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sports Entertainment Gaming Global Corporation, (NASDAQ: SEGG, LTRYW) (the “Company” or “SEGG Media”), the global sports, entertainment, and gaming group, secured a definitive legal victory as the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit unanimously affirmed the District Court’s dismissal with prejudice of all claims seeking approximately
As disclosed by the Company in a press release dated February 27, 2025, the original lawsuit2, which alleged four causes of action found in fraud (Fraudulent Misrepresentation, Negligent Misrepresentation, Aiding and Abetting Fraud and Conspiracy to Commit Fraud) was initially tossed out by the U.S. District for the Southern District of Florida. The lower court, at that time, ruled that plaintiffs failed to state any plausible legal claim. In its review, the three-judge appellate court panel agreed entirely, finding that the lower court acted correctly and that the plaintiffs’ claims failed to meet the strict pleading standards and therefore the allegations lacked any legal or factual merit.
“This ruling confirms that these claims were never backed by the facts or law. I want to thank our legal team for successfully defending the Company," said Gregory Potts, SEGG Media Chief Operating Officer. “Resolving yet another legacy matter lets us keep our operational and financial resources concentrated on the strategic program outlined on August 4.”
SEGG Media remains focused on executing that strategic program — concentrating investment behind its priority growth platforms, including Veloce Media Group, Sports.com Predict and its global affiliate lottery model, and applying disciplined capital allocation across its broader portfolio.
The appellate court’s opinion is marked “not for publication” and is non-precedential under Eleventh Circuit rules.3 Plaintiffs retain the right for twenty-one days from the date the court’s opinion is filed to petition for panel rehearing or rehearing en banc under the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. The Company cannot predict whether such a petition will be filed or its outcome.
