Former Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden will get a high-level review in Nevada's Supreme Court of his lawsuit regarding leaked emails before he resigned as the Raiders' head coach last year. While all seven justices voted unanimously to grant the request to rehear the case without oral arguments, a decision from May 14 by a prior panel that remained in place 2-1 to dismiss it has now been reversed.
Judicial Review and Prior Judgment
The Supreme Court made judgment after a panel of justices denied Gruden's legal team's motion for reconsideration of dismissal that occurred on July 1. According to the judgment issued by that earlier panel, it held that the NFL can always have the case migrate to arbitration, which could be presided over by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who happens to be one of the defendants in the complaint. Two justices argue that Gruden had notice of the arbitration practices when he signed with the Raiders; however, a dissenting justice is concerned over the factor of fairness as Goodell sits in arbitration.

He claims that Goodell and the league forced the Raiders to fire him when they posted the racist, sexist and homophobic slurs he made as an ESPN analyst in the emails. Gruden resigned from the Raiders last November. Previously, the judge had intimated that a jury could decide whether the league's selective leaking of Gruden's emails was a "specific intent" to smash his career.
Career Damage and Damages ClaimedGruden was the head coach when the Raiders moved from Oakland to Las Vegas in 2020 and has career damage and lost endorsement deals actionable for monetary damages against the defendants given these emails were published in Wall Street Journal and New York Times.
