A federal court judge ruled on Wednesday that Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III does not owe his former agent $650,000 in marketing commissions because the statute of limitations expired.
The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri rejected agent Ben Dogra's claims that he was owed 15 percent of Griffin's marketing and endorsement deals from 2014 to 2016. The court ruled the claims were "time-barred," determining the agreement fell under California's two-year statute of limitations and not the five-year one for Missouri.
The lawsuit said that Griffin fired Dogra in 2018 without paying what he owed.
