The Docket strives to keep you informed of current proceedings in numerous sports law cases. Because we can’t possibly cover all of the important cases to watch, and not all of them find their way into The Blitz, we’re adding documents as we check the various court dockets we track, organized by month. Since the courts never take a break, this page will be perpetually updated so bookmark it and check back frequently. You can also contribute your own sports law documents by using the form at the bottom of the page. Since Advocacy for Fairness in Sports primarily tracks cases on the federal docket, we especially appreciate your state law contributions.
Key: yellow highlights indicate a new lawsuit —green highlights denote a legal opinion or order, pink highlights denote petition for writ of certiorari, and red signals a non-court document.
