Mr King and Supreme

nsw: The NSW Supreme Court today heard workers from the Prysmian cable factory in Liverpool congratulated him the day after the life-changing win on May 5, according to Nine News Australia. But when Mr King went to see syndicate organiser Robert Adams, he was told he wasn't a part of the winning group."Mate, I'm part of the syndicate, I paid my $50 whenever you asked for it," Mr King said he told Mr Adams."It different people," Mr Adams allegedly replied. Brendan King, a father-of-five who contributed to workplace syndicates for about four years, claims he is owed $2.7 million as one of 15 southwest Sydney factory employees who won a Powerball draw. Mr King told the court he was distressed but accepted the result until he found out he was the only member of an original 12-person arrangement not to be included in the winning syndicate. Mr King barrister Lachlan Gyles SC said it was presumed a member was part of the syndicate unless they opted out and that it would hardly be "unfair or unjust" if his client were paid the money. In an affidavit, he said Mr Adams told him "s--- happens" in a meeting days after the win."For many, many years I have operated several lottos without Brendan and without people who are in that syndicate," Mr Adams said."I am very sorry that I didn't have the opportunity to ask Brendan to be a part of the winning syndicate."The court heard Mr Adams did not contact Mr King to ask if he wanted to chip in for an extra $600 worth of Powerball tickets, despite making the effort to text another member he had not seen around work.
