Judge OKs Oakland Request To Bar Alameda County From Selling Its Share Of Coliseum To A’s
The city of Oakland requested the temporary restraining order.
OAKLAND, CA (CBS SF) — A judge on Tuesday granted the city of Oakland’s request for a temporary restraining order barring Alameda County from immediately selling its half ownership of the 155-acre Coliseum complex to the Oakland A’s baseball team for $85 million.
However, Alameda County Superior Court Judge Frank Roesch said at a brief hearing that the restraining order doesn’t preclude the county from continuing to talk to the A’s about buying the county’s share of the Coliseum property, which is jointly owned by the city and the county.
