Allows lottery winners in Michigan to remain anonymous if they win over $10,000.
This bill amends the Michigan lottery law to allow winners of prizes over $10,000 to remain anonymous. It prohibits the disclosure of a winner's name, address, or personal information unless the winner consents in writing. The commissioner or bureau employees are not allowed to disclose this information, and it is exempt from the state's freedom of information act. The bill also outlines procedures for voluntary assignments of prize payments and the conditions under which such assignments can be approved by a court.
