City of Glendale Asks Court to Deny Coyotes July Lease Payment

The City of Glendale (COG) returned to Maricopa Superior Court yesterday to attempt to convince Judge Dawn Bergin to amend the temporary restraining order (TRO) she imposed on June 12th. The city asked the court to either let it not make its 3.75 million dollar lease payment due on July 1st, or failing that, to allow the city to put the money in an escrow account.

If the court forces Glendale to make the payment, the city is asking for the Coyotes bond in the case to be raised to four million dollars from the original bond of two hundred fifty thousand dollars, so the money is secured if the city wins the case.
