Depositions for NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and three referees from last season's NFC Championship Game have been scheduled for September.
During a Monday status conference, Orleans Parish Civil District Court Judge Nicole Sheppard scheduled the depositions and said they should take place in New Orleans.
The scheduling conference comes nearly two weeks after Sheppard ruled that the damage lawsuit against the NFL over the playoff non-call that helped the Los Angeles Rams beat the New Orleans Saints and advance to the Super Bowl could continue.
Sheppard also ruled at the time that attorney Antonio "Tony" LeMon could request documents and ask questions of NFL officials.
