In a recent development surrounding the antitrust class action about the NFL’s Sunday Ticket broadcast package, the NFL has countered the plaintiffs’ attempts to revisit discovery documents. The league’s main argument is that the motion to compel brought forth by the plaintiffs is nothing more than a “manufactured and unnecessary dispute” over a discovery process that formally concluded two years ago.
The contentious motion seeks to compel the disclosure of more documents, but the league sees this as an unnecessary distraction and a move that lacks a compelling basis. The NFL’s push back is reflective of the latest legal tussle in a case that has seen several turns over its course.
