Winston Wins Second Circuit Revival of Relevent’s Antitrust Suit, Unlocking U.S. Access to Global Soccer Matches

Won a major Second Circuit victory for Relevent Sports Group, LLC, a sports promoter that organizes soccer matches in the U.S. involving professional teams from non-U.S. leagues.

Am Law recognized the March 2023 win with a “LOTW” Runner-Up nod. With DOJ and Solicitor General support, we defeated Supreme Court review, leading to settlements with both defendants and paving the way for U.S.-venued foreign-league games....Read more

This implies that the organization’s members directly serve as managers and owners without a need for extra bureaucracy.    ...Read more
