AEG wins court order to stop VLT selection process
 
http://www.saratogian.com/articles/2...3266979614.txt

SARATOGA SPRINGS – The firm chosen to run Aqueduct Race Track’s racino earlier this year, and later disqualified, has won a court order bringing the latest selection process to a halt. Justice Barry D. Kramer issued a temporary restraining order on Monday, stopping the state Lottery Division from conducting its review of one remaining bidder – Genting New York LLC – until a July 23 hearing is held. Papers were expected to be served today, but spokesperson Jennifer Givner said Lottery hadn’t received them by early afternoon. The suit was filed by Aqueduct Entertainment Group in state Supreme Court, Schenectady County, where Lottery is headquartered.

Barry Kramer is the 4th best high school basketball player ever from the Capital District region behind Sam Perkins, Pat Riley and Dave Blaha.

Make it the third. No way Pat Riley was better than Barry Kramer.

And I thought the fight for number 2 would be Kramer versus Perkins.

This is a farce. Vince McMahon has to be behind all this bullshit.

Vince McMahon has made a ton of money for his family and employees.

From a legal standpoint, I wouldn't read too much into this - yet.

If I had to make an educated guess about the procedural mechanisms behind the issuance of the temporary restraining order (TRO), it was probably secured because the Lottery isn't scheduled to make a recommendation until August 3 and because the court scheduled a quick turnaround date for a hearing on AEG's application for a preliminary injunction (on July 23). The TRO just maintains the status quo until the court rules on the preliminary injunction application. In order to prevail on that application, AEG has to show a likelihood of success on the merits. Based on a cursory reading of the complaint, I don't think this lawsuit has much merit, and if that's the case, then the application for a preliminary injunction would likely be denied on July 23 and the TRO lifted. If the court reserves on a decision on July 23 and TRO is still in effect on August 3, that's a whole different ball game (and a long litigation process could ensue).

If Perkins counts then shouldn't Lamar Odom Kardashian be included. How about Gary Holle SR. Taylor Battle at Penn St was very good, what ever happened to his brother he was an outstanding high school player, his name escapes me.

Odom was under contract in high school losing his amatuer status. I remember seeing Gary Holle playing baseball in Bleecker stadium

I am sure the Judge will love the part where AEG illegally obtained information regarding their competitors bids during the bidding process.

The dismissal of this action should not take long.

Freddy, there's a Skid Row concert in Erie tonight. I might be the first person to ever play tennis, post on a horse racing message board, and attend a skid row concert sober all in the same day.

The next time I'm in Jersey will be almost like the first. I'm not very good at Tennis, but something tells me I'd probably be able to beat you.

If you are not very good then you will not beat me. Started 3rd singles on a top county team in high school....so maybe it will be hoops instead.

Aqueduct Situation Gets Even Messier, If Possible

SL Green, which was recently eliminated from consideration after Lottery said it did not follow all the bid requirements, today sent a formal letter of protest to the Lottery challenging the way the current proposal process has been implemented.

This is like a bad divorce, where both parties fight so much that there's nothing left to divide -- only in reverse.

The opposite is that all parties are fighting so much prior to getting this off the ground that any potential profits are going to seem like less due to all the time that has elapsed and legal expenses added to the potential startup costs.
