am I wrong to think that the date wouldn't have gotten moved up if the judge didn't think that Duke doesn't have much merit?

Meaning the judge saw what Mensah camp proposed and said "good point. Miami just pay Duke and let's move on."

I think it had more to do with holding the hearing before the tro expires. Sounds like it’s only good do 10 days

Just one of the many reasons why this will never go to court.

Dont think so, I think the judge owes it to the Mensah party to present the new evidence in a timely matter.

The original judge screwed up by granting a TRO that lasted longer than 10 days. You can’t do that. So the TRO would’ve expired before the preliminary injunction hearing. That problem, perhaps coupled with the new motion today, likely prompted the court to move up the hearing.

It wasn’t denied. It just isn’t being heard today. The TRO will be reconsidered anyway at the PI hearing, so it looks like the court just moved up the PI hearing a bit and plans to deal with it all then.

Mensah's lawyers requested the hearing be today or the TRO tossed out. Neither of those happened. Will there be an explanation why?

He screwed up further by not excusing himself from the case seeing as he is a Duke booster and basketball season ticket holder. Conflict of interest should get that ruling thrown out immediately.

He didn’t ***** up. It was on purpose. He could have recused himself before that.

Judge could be in trial or a special set hearing and unable to accommodate a sooner hearing, or he could just be being a ****. We're unlikely to hear the exact reason why the case wasnt docketed today.

It’s probably not able to be heard today. And with the weather coming through I wouldn’t be shocked that’s why they picked the back half of next week.

I don’t think it not getting heard today is a big deal.

Hey give them credit, it’s not the same thing. They took advantage and held the kid hostage way better than Tulane.

Yea, could be any number of reasons they couldnt get it on the docket today and id caution about jumping to conclusions based on that.

Not if the judge doesn't understand how to apply that concept.

Legitimate question I have. We all know these NIL contracts are essentially fig leaves for pay for play. Is it fair to expect a judge to realize that by reading the contracts (and to realize how thats an NCAA issue) or will Mensah have to proactively make that argument for it to come up?

A whole four days sooner and does not provide relief for his ability to transfer. He should sue immediately and enroll today.

If possible I agree. This will be carried out as long as possible to teach a lesson. Just sue and enroll.

May have been on purpose. TROs can be extended under certain circumstances. The judge purported to extend the TRO in the original order to the date of the next hearing, which was improper. He may have done that knowing it was improper or he might not have known it was improper. The second explanation is possible (and more plausible than you would hope when it comes to state court judges, who do not always have mastery over the nuances of civil procedure).

I agree the judge should not have heard it in the first place and think I expressed that opinion at some point in this thread.

This timing is so annoying that we can’t just resolve this with a check already as that’s what’s going to happen anyway!
