Oakland sues Raiders, NFL in federal court alleging 'illegal move' to Las Vegas
For sure the lawyers are gonna win with all the legal fees generated.
Could push the Raiders to relocate sooner (and play at Sam Boyd in LV?)
Oakland filed a lawsuit in federal court Tuesday challenging the relocation of the Raiders to Las Vegas, calling the move illegal and demanding compensation for hundreds of millions of dollars in losses.
The long-awaited suit against the Raiders, the National Football League and every other team in the league seeks damages for the “unlawful decision to boycott Oakland” but does not ask for the Raiders to remain in the city. Oakland claims the NFL and its teams collude as an “illegal cartel” to demand that cities bankroll new stadiums with public funds or be shut out of the marketplace with team relocations.
On top of antitrust violations, the complaint alleges that the Raiders and NFL breached their contract with the city.
For sure the lawyers are gonna win with all the legal fees generated.
