Court spikes Saints fan's lawsuit on NFC champ.

The Louisiana Supreme Court dismissed a New Orleans Saints fans' lawsuit against the NFL over the infamous "no call" in the NFC Championship Game on Friday, meaning commissioner Roger Goodell and game officials will no longer be required to testify.

The lawsuit was claiming fraud and conspiracy over the officials' failure to call pass interference in the final minutes of the Saints' loss to the Los Angeles Rams in January. Similar lawsuits had previously been dismissed in federal court.

A Louisiana district court judge ordered in July that Goodell and three officials from the game could be questioned under oath.
