CSAC Sued for $500 Million

MMANews.com is reporting today that the CSAC has been sued by New Era Fighting promotion. New Era Fighting alleges that the CSAC issued a cease and desist order only minutes prior to NEF's highly publicized tryouts in July 2007. The order forced NEF to cancel the tryouts. The details get more interesting: The CSAC issued their cease and desist order in July because they claimed that NEF president Ron Kort was not licensed. However, NEF claims that the CSAC not only approved his application, but awarded him a promoter's license, and cashed his $1k licensing fee check. (NEF is making copies of the cashed check available upon request.) You can read the full article by clicking the MMANews.com link at the top of this post.
