An indigent farmer, denied a $1 million prize after picking all nine winners at Hollywood Park on July 21, will go to court seeking “multiples of what he would have won,” his lawyer said.

Mission National Insurance Co. refused to pay Rodolfo Sahagun, of Carlsbad, at a final negotiation Monday, attorney George Martinez said.

The company contends Sahagun, 48, submitted three entry forms in violation of contest rules against multiple entries.

Martinez, however, said the race track failed to give due notice of its multiple-entry ban and that, in effect, its entry form directed contestants’ attention away from the rule.

Although the restriction is printed on the back of the Pick 9 entry form, he said, a listing of rules on the front of the form ends by referring contestants not to the back of the ticket but to the race track office for more information on contest rules.
