最高法院拒绝审理NFL上诉，允许弗洛雷斯种族歧视诉讼继续
Read, Watch or Listen
Washington. The Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to review the NFL’s appeal, allowing Brian Flores’ racial discrimination lawsuit to proceed in federal court instead of through league arbitration overseen by Commissioner Roger Goodell. Flores filed the suit in February 2022 against the NFL and the Miami Dolphins, New York Giants and Denver Broncos. Washington: The decision preserves lower-court rulings that kept the case in open court; Justice Brett Kavanaugh dissented. Flores, now a Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator, is joined by coaches Steve Wilks and Ray Horton. The NFL said it respects the ruling and is prepared to defend itself as the case proceeds toward trial this year.
