The NFL and Rams owner Stan Kroenke avoided the spectacle of a trial by reaching an $800 million settlement with St. Louis over the team's relocation.
A favorable judge and a nebulous NFL relocation policy is helping St. Louis beat Stan Kroenke and fellow owners in court over the Rams’ move to L.A.It was not immediately clear how much of the settlement would be paid by Kroenke and how much by the league and other owners.
The NFL asked the St. Louis Circuit Court to throw out the lawsuit, to order private arbitration and to move any trial out of St. Louis. The court declined all three requests; the rulings were sustained on appeal. With the addition of tax revenue St. Louis lost when the Rams moved, damages could have topped $4 billion, independent of any punitive damages.
