These are the sole remedies of the claimant. If a defective on-line ticket is purchased, the only responsibility or liability of the lottery, the on-line vendor, or the on-line retailer is the replacement of the defective on-line ticket with another on-line ticket for a future drawing of the same game.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Source:</b> 17 SDR 51, effective October 8, 1990; 30 SDR 52, effective October 28, 2003.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>General Authority:</b> SDCL <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=42-7A-21">42-7A-21(3)(17).</A></p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Law Implemented:</b> SDCL <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=42-7A-23">42-7A-23</A>, <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=42-7A-34">42-7A-34.</A></p> </div> </body> </html>
