'See You In Court' Says Feuding Aunt To Nephew Over $1.2 Million Lotto Win

Both names were on the ‘Chase The Ace’ Canadian fundraising lottery game, but Barbara Reddick threatened to take her newhew to court and get back her half of the $1.22 million winnings. The whole saga was seen out on this video. Reddick says, “I'm getting a lawyer tomorrow. Now you can print that."

UPDATE: September 20, 2018: A court proceeding froze half of the winnings until the dispute was dealt with.
