Oral Argument for Zeke case scheduled for Thursday

[TRUTH87]

Looks like if no decision tomorrow night, there won’t be one till next week. on friday courts are closed for Veterans day.

I'm seeing on Daniel Wallach's Twitter that Andrew Tulumello is possibly subbing for Jeffrey Kessler tomorrow.

What’s his opinion on that?

I'm curious. Let's say Zeke gets his PI tomorrow. Is Judge Falia still the one who will ultimately decide on case later on? What would stop her from having that hearing, let's say in December and decide Zeke's fate then?

I didn't really see an opinion from him, just photos of the paperwork.

Then Zeke would appeal that decision and have another hearing with the second circuit over the actual case itself.

Well when should we know?

Well when should we know?

From what I've heard, late tonight or tomorow. Some say won't rule tom because of holiday but also saw some who thought they might.

Well when should we know?

Probably depends on the judges vacation plans for the 3 day weekend.

Any idea why the NFLPA went straight for a Preliminary Injunction instead of a TRO like in Texas?

There are all sorts of tactical reasons that come into play so this is somewhat speculative. But recall that they moved for the TRO in Texas before Henderson had issued his ruling and without clarity on the timing of when that ruling would come down.

The primary difference between a TRO and a PI lies in the timing: a TRO can be issued by the court on the application of the moving party and without any hearing or submissions by the other party. That's what Elliot needed in Texas because there was a real threat that Henderson would issue his ruling on September 9, leaving no time for a hearing before the first game on September 10.

Currently, Elliot has the benefit of the stay pending hearing of the motion for the PI (which is effectively the equivalent of a TRO issued without a hearing) so he's not faced with the same exigent circumstances. If, instead, he could somehow be exposed to irreparable damage before even getting to the hearing of the motion for the PI, the NFLPA would presumably have moved for a TRO instead.

they took 14 months to do the investigation (obviously they weren't in a hurry). now all of a sudden they want everything expedited??

That was a great article and should be read by everyone here in this forum. This explains exactly why Zeke is so passionate about defending himself. Great piece of work.

It means the NFL took its sweet time to nail him, so what is their prejudice if it doesn't start now, and the entire process is heard.

You don't even have to be in the court room to know the judges smell the bs the league has been cooking up.

i LOVE that the NFL screwed themselves over by allowing him to play week 1
