Kapp damages trial nears end as defense to begin case
Charles Hanger, Kapp’s attorney, is close to finishing his presentation in Federal Court. If the forecast holds, the defense the New England Patriots and the NFL can start presenting its case as early as Thursday. Kapp says the club and league blocked a three year 600000 deal in 1971. The NFL and Patriots say his refusal to sign a standard contract voided the deal and his damages claim. The amount sought by Kapp remains undisclosed, though some defense lawyers have floated 10 million dollars.
