Kim Seymour attended the Jan. 6 draw at MacDonald Auto Group in Sydney on behalf of her husband, Darin Seymour, who was the actual prize winner but was at work. They filed a motion with the court to prevent the Seymours from spending the money while they argued their claim to the prize. The parties agreed that Gould suggested they should split the $100,000 grand prize so each would be guaranteed $20,000. Darin Seymour also said he never would have agreed to give any of his winnings to strangers. Edwards said he concluded the group members "have no chance" of convincing a court that Darin Seymour is contractually bound to share his win with them.
