DraftKings Contest Payouts Involving Suspended Game Complaint

January 9, 2023

DraftKings, Inc. and DraftKings Holdings, Inc. offer customers daily fantasy sports (DFS) competitions as well as sports betting. When Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin collapsed during a game with the Cincinnati Bengals in January 2023, and the game was suspended, the company made choices as to how to handle its current contests. The complaint for this class action alleges that in some cases these choices violated its own rules for suspended games.
