SEATTLE AP-A federal judge on Monday declined to place limits on what evidence the owners of the Seattle SuperSonics may offer during a trial that could determine whether the team moves to Oklahoma City next season.
In pretrial motions, Seattle lawyers asked U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman to bar the Sonics from introducing evidence that the team and the city had a “dysfunctional” relationship, that survey results show most residents don’t care if the Sonics leave, and that the team tried to obtain a new arena in the Seattle area.
