The drawn-out battle over the fate of a popular baseball team continues to make headlines as the defense continues to be denied its requests.

The legal team for the man who currently owns the team tried a new tactic this month. They argued that the commissioner of the baseball organization was using preferential treatment towards other teams while denying this team certain privileges. His lawyers petitioned the judge to gain access to more information about the commissioner's treatment towards other teams, a request that was denied.

This battle over the baseball team is not merely one of possession. It is inextricably linked to both the owner's divorce and his bankruptcy case. In order to escape from bankruptcy, the owner has tried several different legal avenues, most of which have been denied him. In fact, the baseball organization is even questioning whether the team is qualified to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the first place.
