If the ruling remains unchallenged
-and if Oakland can prove in a lower
aurt that the team served a “public
k”— it would halt the 1980 Super
owl champions’ bid to move to Los
Igeles.
When reached by phone, officials
for both the Oakland Raiders and the
Los Angeles Coliseum declined com
ment.
“No constitutional restriction, fed
eral or state, purports to limit the na
ture of the property that may be taken
by eminent domain,” Justice Frank
Richardson wrote for the six-member
majority of the state’s high court.
The two restraints imposed on emi
nent domain proceedings by federal
and state constitutions are that the tak
ing be for a “public use” and that “just
compensation” be paid, Richardson
wrote.
The court found no real difference
between the ownership of stadiums by
municipalities and the ownership of
sports teams.
“The examples of Candlestick Park
in San Francisco and Anaheim Sta
dium in Anaheim, both owned and
operated by municipalities, further
suggest the acceptance of the general
principle that providing access to re
creation to its residents in the form of
spectator sports is an appropriate
function of city government,” the
court said.
“If acquiring, erecting, owning and/
or operating a sports stadium is a per
missible municipal function, we dis
cern no valid legal reason why owning
and operating a sports franchise
which fields a team to play in the sta
dium is not equally permissible.”
The ruling conflicts with the effect
of a recent jury verdict in a federal
court trial on whether the NFL
violated antitrust laws by refusing to
allow Raiders’ owner A1 Davis to move
the team to Los Angeles.
U.S. District Judge Harry Preger-
son refused last week to halt the move
while the federal suit is appealed, but
nonetheless, attorneys for the NFL
are appealing the case to the U.S.
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
The question of which ruling pre
vails may have to be settled by another
legal battle.
“I hate to talk in parables, but if they
would attempt to move I think they
would be making a mistake,” Oakland
attorney David Self said after hearing
of the decision.
If the team tried to move he said he
would ask for a court order to halt the
move. If he could not prevent the
move but eventually won the eminent
domain claim, he would force the
team to move back, he said.
The state high court sent the case
back to the Monterey County Super
ior Court of Judge Richard M. Silver
to conduct a trial on whether the con
demnation of the Raiders would serve
a “public use” and thus fall under the
eminent domain laws.
If the city wins the trial and the
probable appeals, it would have to pay
Davis and the other team owners a
sum of money before it could take
over the Raiders. The amount would
also be disputed in the courts.
