SEC Lawsuit Remains Pending

TL;DR

SI noted the lawsuit remains after no sanctions; Friday has no docket step.

MSM Perspective

SI filed a problem that is not gone. Friday does not dismiss it.

X Perspective

Feeds treat a quiet Friday as the case dying.

Coverage after Thursday's SEC meeting recorded no sanctions and a lawsuit that had not been dismissed. [1] This paper printed no sanctions Friday. Friday has no new docket step in fetched copy. A quiet sports desk is not a withdrawn complaint. Print pending. Do not print dismissed.

No docket stamp is in Friday's sports copy, so pending remains the lawsuit word and not a dismissed complaint.
Friday recap that pretends the lawsuit died is a feed, not a docket.
No dismissal stamp is in Friday's lawsuit copy.
A missing lawsuit dismissal is filed as missing, not imagined.
The lawsuit remains on the docket.
SI already named the pending suit.

SI's no-action note plus a live lawsuit equals a feud in cold storage. Cold storage preserves; it doesn't resolve. Friday keeps the temperature.
The Tigers play Saturday; the lawyers play the long game. One clock runs in days, the other in months. Friday suits up for both.

Stored feuds keep; Friday stores. Storing is the update. Temperatures hold.

Two clocks, two games; Friday keeps the lawsuit in cold storage. SI already named pending. Not a dismissal.

Friday suits up for both. Cold storage is not a ruling. SI already named pending.

The Tigers' Saturday game and the Axon docket do not share a clock. Pending is Sports Illustrated's word. Friday stores the feud.

Friday keeps Axon in cold storage. The Tigers play Saturday on a different clock. SI's pending is not a dismissal.

Friday stores the feud. Friday keeps Axon pending, not dismissed. SI's pending is not a dismissal.

Friday stores the feud. Friday keeps Axon pending, not dismissed. SI's pending is not a dismissal.
