Until such time as a subscription play is properly and validly registered with the Nebraska Lottery, or until such time as a signature or, if permitted by state, district or territory law, a mark or printed name is placed upon a ticket in the area designated for signature, mark or name, a ticket shall be owned by the bearer of the ticket. When a subscription play is validly and properly registered with the Nebraska Lottery, or when a signature, mark or name is placed on the ticket in the place designated, the person who has registered the ticket, or if not registered, whose signature, mark or name appears in such area shall be the owner of the ticket and shall be entitled (subject to the validation requirements in Rule 31 of the Game Rules [Ticket Validation] and state, district or territory law) to any prize attributable thereto.
The manner of payment of prizes for valid winning tickets bearing multiple signatures, marks or names shall be determined by the Nebraska Lottery in its sole discretion, and any decision shall be final and binding.
The Product Group, the MUSL and the Nebraska Lottery shall not be responsible for lost or stolen tickets.
A receipt for a subscription play has no value and is not evidence of a play. A subscription play is valid when registered with the lottery in accordance with lottery rules and the person or, if permitted by the lottery rules, the persons registering the play shall be the owner of the subscription play.
