[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 1005494, member: 2426"] Is that the case? Going just by memory, which is a very bad thing, I thought that the ACC lawyers said that the original filing was based on contract language and didn't enumerate any actual harms, so it didn't have material impact. That the amended filing received authorization because it included actual harms that FSU is causing and does have material impact. I haven't read the Clemson filing. I haven't read the FSU response to the ACC response to the FSU lawsuit in Florida. I think the original FSU complaint was so bad it was like a joke legal filing. I think none of the complaints make any real legal sense, except the updated ACC complaint, because they are all arguing about what [B]might [/B]happen [B]if [/B]a member leaves the ACC. I don't think courts usually make decisions about ending a contract, until the contract is broken or ended. Courts seem to try very hard to stay out of civil cases, even when there is actual harm that needs to be remedied. They seem want parties to settle those claims on their own if there is any possibility of doing it outside of the courts. The amended ACC complaint actually alleges breeches of contract and torts by FSU that cause monetary harm to the ACC. Those are, in my non-lawyer opinion, the only things that have been filed that any court should rule upon. If FSU really wants a court to decide if the exit fee is too high, and whether the ACC really owns their media rights, they should withdraw from the conference and file a lawsuit with actual standing to claim harm.
