raiderrocker18 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 As of this moment nothing has changed. His new york hearing is scheduled for 2:15pm eastern time today. That hearing will be for a temporary restraining order. If it's granted, he should be good to go this week and it bodes very well for him eventually acquiring a preliminary injunction which will let him play out the season. If the TRO isn't granted, he's almost certainly toast as it would be INCREDIBLY unlikely to get an injunction after being denied a TRO. His only prayer would be to get the en banc appeal in Texas, which they only grant like 3% of the time (totally discretionary). Basically gotta hope the panel is full of Cowboys homers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raiderrocker18 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Follow @petebrush on Twitter. He's in the courtroom live tweeting what's going on. Judge expects to make a decision on the restraining order by today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Surely this process and inconvenience is enough to persuade Zeke to stop being a knacker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titans0021 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 So, we get to go through this again in a couple weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the grounds for a TRO are essentially identical to that of an injunction. Only kicker is that it will be a different judge. Still, I've been saying for the past week that it's unlikely he'll miss time. The irreparable harm is clear and this case is different enough from Brady to convince the court that he has a case.

He's just buying time, to play the niners...why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom cody Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 He's still playing this week,. hard to understand this whole situation. Think the guy should serve the suspension and come back when that's over. Time to put everything behind us as it relates to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 So Zeke can play for a couple weeks until the Judge is back from vacation, and then suspension is back on again????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 In all honesty, right now I don't think that for Zeke it's about the suspension (maybe to some extent obviously it is), but primarily it's about clearing his name and not admitting guilt.

Livewire Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Is he suspended on odd number days or even? Or do they go by the day? Today is Wednesday so that means he's not suspended right? I'm so confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
