The legal battle to control the Los Angeles Lakers is essentially over as controlling owner Jeanie Buss has removed her brother Jim Buss as a trustee and replaced him with her younger sister Janie Buss, according to documents entered into Los Angeles Superior Court on Monday morning.
The court agreed that the three trustees are obligated to do everything in their power to ensure Jeanie Buss remains the both the Lakers controlling owner and head of the Lakers board of directors.
