[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 994364, member: 2426"] I don't see the voting rights pleading the same as an executive that is going to be fired. I see it as the ACC saying that FSU is disrupting and harming the rest of the conference at the moment, and asking for their authority in the conference to be restricted until this case is decided. (or FSU stops the damaging activities, such as releasing confidential information) I am not a lawyer, but my impression is that things look much worse in written pleadings than they actually are. I had a family member in a criminal case, misdemeanor driving offense that ended up being plead to a civil driving offense. His lawyer warned him that when he submitted his filings to the court to not get overly concerned. He said that some people freak out when they read that their lawyer is making "demands" of the prosecution, but it is just language that is used in court to get discovery. In this case, I don't think all of the filings are as "ugly" as you seem to believe. It is normal court language and normal legal writing. The FSU filing seemed "petty" to me because it wasn't very well constructed to guide someone through their points. It was written more like a political speech or a fan board. They put a lot of talking points in the filing, but they didn't tie everything together and make strong arguments that there was a cause of action, nor what the remedy should be if a cause of action were found. In my opinion, it was written in such a way as to make their fans hoot and hollar, but not to get a court to side with them. [/QUOTE]
