939 F. Supp. 1071 (S.D.N.Y. 1996), rev’d, 105 F.3d 841 (2d Cir. 1997)
We successfully tried the NBA’s “hot news” misappropriation claim arising out of defendants’unauthorized transmissions on an AOL online site and via a Motorola hand-held beeper product (the “Sports Trax”) of game statistics on a real-time basis, i.e., while the games are still in progress. We also served in an of counsel capacity to the NBA in the appeal in which the Second Circuit reversed the district court’s ruling.
