Browns File Suit to Challenge The Art Modell Law

Yesterday we wrote about the Art Modell Law and how it was possibly unconstitutional.  Well it turns out the Cleveland Browns thought so too.  Yesterday they filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio to have the Modell Law ruled unconstitutional.  Much like our blog, the team questioned the law (Ohio Revised Code § 9.67) on grounds of vagueness and the Dormant Commerce Clause among other reasons.  We will be following this case closely and will post on it as news breaks on it.
