Official announcement by the press department of the administrative court

 

Express Application Granted: Advertising for BetandWin allowed in Bremen

 

The administrative court made it's decision in the two running cases concerning the legality of advertising for sport bookmaker BetandWin e.K.

 

The proceedings surrounded jersey advertising through Werder Bremen GmbH & Co Kg a.A. and SV Werder Bremen from 1899 e.V. and in a second process concerning advertising at the Weser Stadium (hoardings, stand, roof etc.) through DSM Sportwerbung GmbH.

 

The City of Bremen had imposed a ban on BetandWin advertising and the general promotion of events and public gaming in Bremen. The states gaming monopoly was impared by neither the European laws nor the German constitution. BetandWin e.K. were also unable to call upon an allowance issued by the East German Republic in 1990.

 

State owned lottery and gaming group Oddset have pushed heavily in recent years to control the complete national gambling laws. BetandWin had their advantage in the fact that they had advertised on hoarding at the Weser Stadium last season without the interception of the City of Bremen. The decision was given in favour of the plaintive BetandWin/Werder Bremen with the background based on their private interests.

 

A appeal to the decision can be made to the high court but must be done so within the next two weeks.
