A federal judge on Monday ruled he won't enact a restraining order to tie up nearly $34.5 million needed to bring the Detroit Pistons to Little Caesars Arena with the Detroit Red Wings.
Had the restraining order been put in place, the Pistons might have been forced to delay their move downtown from their current home, The Palace in Auburn Hills.
Robert Davis, an avid litigant and activist, and D. Etta Wilcoxon, who previously ran for Detroit city clerk, filed the federal complaint against the Detroit Downtown Development Authority and Detroit Brownfield Redevelopment Authority alleging public funds are being misspent.
