Major League Baseball and its Players Association were united in their dismissal of a lawsuit filed against them after the league's All-Star Game was moved from Atlanta to Denver because of a controversial voting-rights bill.
According to Steve Gardner of USA Today, Job Creators Network, which is a conservative advocacy group backed by Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus, filed a lawsuit Monday in the Southern District of New York.
The lawsuit, which is seeking more than $1 billion in damages and the return of the game to Atlanta, was filed by lawyer Howard Kleinhendler, who was also part of Donald Trump's legal team when the former president failed to overturn his loss in the 2020 election.
