Prize amounts in California are pari-mutuel and may vary based on ticket sales and the number of winners.Earlier this year, on Feb. 20, 2024, John Cheeks filed a lawsuit against Powerball and the D.C. Lottery, alleging a $340 million mistake involving his ticket. Cheeks claims he purchased a Powerball ticket on Jan. 6, 2023, when the jackpot reached a record amount. He later saw his numbers, which matched those he selected, posted on the D.C. Lottery’s website, only to find out they were not the official winning numbers.According to Cheeks, the numbers he saw online remained on the lottery’s site for three days before being corrected. Despite presenting his ticket to the lottery office, he was told it was invalid and advised to discard it. Cheeks instead stored the ticket in a safe deposit box and sought legal counsel.Lottery officials acknowledged the error, attributing it to a staff mistake, but rejected Cheeks’ claim based on their gaming system’s results. Cheeks is now seeking damages from Powerball and the D.C. Lottery. The jackpot he thought he won eventually grew to $754.6 million before being claimed on Feb. 6, 2023.Cheeks’ attorney, Richard Evans, noted that although officials attributed the issue to a contractor’s error, no evidence has yet been provided to substantiate this claim. Evans also referenced a similar case in Iowa, where a contractor’s error was rectified by paying out the winnings.</div></body>
