Federal injunction may aid Raiders move to L A Coliseum
A federal judge's injunction could allow the Oakland Raiders to relocate to the Los Angeles Coliseum for the 1982 NFL season. Judge Harry Pregerson stayed the order pending a 9th Circuit appeal, with a July 2 dissolution if not sustained. NFL lawyers plan an immediate appeal and stay request as Raiders backer Al Davis calls the ruling a vindication of antitrust and fair dealing violations.
