The Nevada Supreme Court said on Thursday that former NFL head coach Jon Gruden’s civil lawsuit against the league can go to trial.
The last legal resort left for the NFL is an appeal to the United States Supreme Court, which ESPN reported is likely.
The Nevada court said the arbitration process does not apply to Gruden, as he is not a current employee.
A federal appeals court ruled that Flores’ discrimination lawsuit against the NFL can proceed to trial, rather than being subject to league arbitration.
Gruden did not comment on Thursday’s ruling either, but spoke to ESPN in August about the Nevada court’s initial ruling against league arbitration.
