Yost Asks to Join Art Modell Law Lawsuit

Ohio Secretary of State Dave Yost filed a Motion to Intervene in the “Art Modell Law” Case last week.  The case deals with the battle between the Browns and the city of Cleveland on Thursday over the team’s possible future home.  The Browns filed suit to stop the City from using or enforcing “The Art Modell Law” (ORC  § 9.67) which is the state law that makes it harder for a team to leave a city that receives taxpayer dollars.
