Brazilian Appeals Judge Lifts Betting Ban for CDA Gaming
What happened
An appeals judge granted a provisional ruling on November 3, 2026, restoring the license for CDA Gaming, the company operating the Casa de Apostas, Betsul, and Jogo Online brands. This ruling cuts against the national betting ban that was signed by Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The judge found that ending the license without compensation amounted to a “true confiscation” that violated the principle of legal certainty.
