Golden State Warriors' plan for new arena faces another legal challenge

The Golden State Warriors have had tougher battles in court than on it.

On Thursday, the Mission Bay Alliance filed a lawsuit in Sacramento against the commission, city and county of San Francisco and its offshoots to stop the construction of a new arena in a place those entities approved. The alliance filed on the grounds that the arena would, among other things, create traffic that could affect flow to and from the nearby UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital.

"Some people will die trying to get to the hospital if this stadium is built next to the emergency room," the lawsuit states.
