Farrar breaks down bad news for the owners
Finally, in Item 3 of his Conclusion, Doty sets forth the parameters by which an injunction may be applied in the case of relief for the breach of contract, and this might also apply to the way in which he chooses to bring down an injunction against the lockout.
The court orders that a hearing be held concerning relief to be granted to the Players arising from the NFL’s breach of the SSA. The hearing shall consider the award of both money damages and equitable relief, including injunction. District of Minnesota Local Rule 7.1(b) will dictate briefing schedules and related procedures.
