Landmark Ruling for Soccer Clubs and Players vs. Bookies
18 December 2006
Real Madrid, P.S.V. Eindhoven, Imari, FC Porto and some of their players (Zidane, Beckham, Raul, Ronaldo and Luis Figo) recently lodged claims in France and Belgium against a group of major online bookmakers that includes bwin, Betfair, Ladbrokes, Miapuesta, Unibet, VC Bet and William Hill. The basis of the legal actions was the control of the gambling business between soccer clubs and online bookmakers. The claims assert that the betting companies have exploited the names and images of the football clubs and their star players for commercial purposes without the appropriate licenses and legal authorizations. Moreover, they ask that the companies be made to stop using the images and forced to "repair the harm caused." On Nov. 24, 2006, the commercial court of Liège ruled in favor of the bookmakers.»

An Age-Old Debate Rears Its Head in South Africa
15 December 2006
A great deal of media attention has been focused recently on the judgment handed down on Nov. 27, 2006 by Judge Hartzenberg of the Transvaal Provincial Division of the High Court of South Africa in the case of Casino Enterprises vs. the Gauteng Gambling Board and Others. As a result there has been much speculation as to its affect on Internet gambling in South Africa, and a fairly bleak and negative picture has been painted by the media in general. Before we examine some of the finer detail of the case, it may be worthwhile revisiting the legal position that forms the core around which the judgment has been formulated.»
