About This Course
The relationship between sports leagues and their teams is complex, particularly the legal aspects. From that perspective, are they one entity, joint ventures, partners? And what happens when there is conflict between them?
This CLE course will address the main potential causes of action and affirmative defensive as well as potential remedies. The course will analyze potential disputes and explain how to approach them, what to look for and tips for quick resolution.
Beginning with a review of the best uses of anti-trust, breach of contract, fiduciary duties, tortious interference and other potential claims, the course will explain how to address and resolve disputes before they cause damage.
The course will then address the specific remedies available in such instances such as injunction, liquidated damages, conspiracy, punitive damages, rescission and others.
