LastPommerFan Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 I think it would be removed to federal court in a nanosecond because any buyer who wanted to move the team would use an out-of-state corporation. I'm thinking about "can't go dark" provisions in shopping mall leases, and breaches of those are remedied with money damages. How are the damages calculated? I imagine 5 years of the bills presence in Erie County has upwards of $500M of economic impact. Or is it just the potential lost tax revenue. In other words would it be damages to the Erie County Government, or damages to the People of Erie County? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 How are the damages calculated? I imagine 5 years of the bills presence in Erie County has upwards of $500M of economic impact.

The damage award will not be calculated; that is what a liquidated damages provision is for (it's an acknowledgement that breaching a contract will result in a certain amount of loss.) Citizens aren't getting checks, if that's where you're headed. Any award would go to the Erie County Stadium Corporation. I hope I answered it, but if not, let me know.

Yes, that first part clears it up. The damages are preset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
