CodeMonkey Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 The legal scholars that have opined in the several articles since this came to light a few months ago, agree that they've never seen such language in a lease of this type. So yeah, it's anything but normal. The language gives the county and state the express right to seek the injunctive relief in order to enforce the lease terms, chief among these that the Bills MUST play their games at RWS and nowhere else. What are the chances any judge in Erie County and/or NYS wouldn't grant the order in light of the specified language contained in the agreement? GO BILLS!!! No Erie County judge who wishes to be reelected that's for sure An appeals court or NYS Supreme Court in Albany who knows.

That is the beauty of having the Cuomo & Schumer so involved. It is going to be tough to get this done in NY. The reality is it isn't going to matter. This sale will be completed in relatively short order and the team will be in WNY. I am not hearing anything to the contrary. The doomsday prepping was important a few months back even if it wasn't likely. At this point everyone can stop building their bunkers and take a deep breath. The Bills will be in WNY for a long, long time.
A Dog Named Kelso Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 I am still in this thread for purely academic reasons. I agree-- it's going to be pegula. As was I. It is an interesting discussion of what-if, no matter how unlikely.
