Brazil again bans three bookmakers that had obtained judicial authorization from operating
Seat of the Federal Regional Court of the 3rd Region, which has suspended the provisional authorization granted to CDA Gaming
The Court revokes the exception granted to CDA Gaming and supports the application of the national ban on betting.
The legal battle over the betting ban in Brazil adds a new chapter. The Federal Regional Court of the 3rd Region has suspended the provisional authorization that allowed CDA Gaming to keep three bookmakers operational despite the national ban approved in September.
The decision, announced on November 6 by the Attorney General's Office, revokes the effects of a resolution issued just one day earlier, on November 5, by Judge Adriana Pileggi.
The president of the court, Johonsom Di Salvo, has considered that allowing individual exceptions to Provisional Measure 1.394/2026 would compromise legal certainty and the uniform application of the national policy prohibiting fixed-odds betting.
The resolution extends to CDA Gaming the criteria that were already applied in October against Stake Brasil, whose provisional authorization was also suspended.
The Supreme Court has yet to rule on the constitutionality of the ban, which was challenged by Actions 8024, 8027 and 8028.
In the meantime, the authorization granted to CDA Gaming is suspended until there is a subsequent judicial resolution that modifies it or definitively concludes the procedure.
