And as I understand it, the judge said the 'evidence' didn't indicate anything illegal.
It appears to my untrained eye that the teams asked their drivers and sponsors to document possible action they could (not would) take if the teams didn't have charters. It's quite possible I'm not understanding what's going on.
Not exactly. The information presented to the court (THIS judge) in December 2024 was manufactured by FrontRow’s GM, was false, which helped gain the injunction against NASCAR, and led to the appeal to the higher circuit court, which destroyed THIS judge’s previous ruling. It was a LIE. Note the language from the filing. THIS judge ignores it because he was made to look like a fool, AND every ruling he has made has been for the plaintiffs.
Quoting from the NASCAR filing:
When NASCAR's counsel questioned this evidence in its briefing on Plaintiffs' Renewed
Motion for Preliminary Injunction, filed in December 2024,' 23XI represented to the Court that
"23XI had no involvement at all" in drafting it, Doc. 67-2 9 4, and Front Row told the Court that (REDACTED)
" Doc. 67-1 1 20.
Those sworn declarations, which were drafted by counsel, were false. The Court relied on those
declarations when granting Plaintiffs requested preliminary injunction, which multiplied the
proceedings by requiring NASCAR to seek an interlocutory appeal in the Fourth Circuit.
