Overview
- Dallas Sports Group filed a 253-page petition seeking injunctive relief to confirm control of the arena’s operating companies and move forward with planned improvements.
- The Mavericks allege the Stars breached a long-standing agreement by running their headquarters and practice facility from Frisco since 2003, which they say has impeded upgrades.
- The Stars responded with a countersuit seeking to restore normal operations at the arena and accusing the Mavericks of attempting a hostile takeover.
- Both franchises are locked into leases at the arena through 2031, and a roughly $300 million renovation package under discussion could extend future commitments, with terms contested.
- A recent letter from the City of Dallas cited in the filings declared the Stars in breach of their franchise agreement for relocating their headquarters.
