SB 802

This bill prohibits a retailer who sold a lottery ticket, the administrator of the

state lottery, and the Department of Revenue, which administers the lottery, from

disclosing the name, address, or social security number of a lottery prize winner of

$1,000,000 or more for up to one year after the winner becomes entitled to the lottery

prize, if the winner requests confidentiality. The bill provides exceptions where

disclosure is allowed, including disclosures made to withhold taxes from the

winnings, to determine whether the winner is delinquent in tax payment or

court-ordered child support, to determine any withholding for child, spousal, or

family support, and to determine any withholding for unpaid court judgments.

Additionally, the bill exempts from the right to inspection, copying, or receipt under

public records law written records of a confidential winner's name, address, or social

security number for up to one year after the winner becomes entitled to the lottery

prize.
