Washington Commanders Accused Of Cheating Season-Ticket Holders In New Lawsuit Filed by D.C. Attorney General
The attorney general of Washington, D.C., sued the Washington Commanders on Thursday, alleging the team implemented a scheme that cheated District residents out of their deposits for season tickets and used the money for its own purposes.
The lawsuit over the alleged ticket-cheating scheme lawsuit comes a week after Racine filed another suit against the team, its embattled owner Dan Snyder and the NFL for allegedly deceiving D.C. residents about the league's investigation into sexual harassment and misconduct.
The team through the deposit scheme allegedly "withheld hundreds of thousands of dollars from District residents,» the lawsuit says.
A spokesperson for the Commanders pushed back on Racine's allegations Thursday.
«The Team has not accepted security deposits for over 20 years in the case of premium tickets and over a decade in the case of suites, and we began returning them to season ticket holders as early as 2004,» a Commanders spokesperson said in a statement Thursday. «In 2014, as part of a comprehensive review, Team management was instructed to send notices to over 1,400 customers with deposits and return all security deposits requested.»
