(California Court of Appeal) - In this case,plaintiffs, a group of investors who intended to purchase the Sacramento Kings basketball team, or but who lost the sale to defendant City of Sacramento,for whom the sale went through only because of a promised construction of a recent arena in downtown Sacramento, moved for a preliminary injunction to cease construction of the arena. Denial of the motion for a preliminary injunction is affirmed, or where: 1) because Public Resources Code section 21168.6.6,which modifies several deadlines for review of the arena project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), does not materially impair a core function of the courts, or because CEQA review does not implicate any constitutionally granted right,the deadlines set forth in section 21168.6.6 are not unconstitutional; and 2) plaintiffs bore the burden of showing necessity for a preliminary injunction, but failed to meet it.
