A Sexual assault lawsuit against Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones appears headed for trial

A sexual assault lawsuit against Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones appears headed for trial. According to the Dallas Morning News, a Texas appellate court revived a lawsuit filed against the Dallas Cowboys owner on Monday that accused him of sexually assaulting a woman in 2018.

The lawsuit has been revived. It means that the plaintiff has been given another opportunity to pursue their case against Jerry Jones in court.

The decision to revive the lawsuit suggests that the appellate court found that there may be enough evidence to support the plaintiff's claims. And that the case should move forward.

It's worth noting that in any legal proceeding, both sides will have the opportunity to present their arguments and evidence, and the judge or jury will ultimately make a decision based on the facts presented.

The allegations made by J.G. against Jerry Jones are serious and concerning. They were originally filed in 2020.  In the lawsuit, said Jones “kissed her on the mouth and forcibly grabbed her without her consent” after a game in a suite at AT&T Stadium in 2018.

Jones has called the accusations “malicious and hurtful" and has denied all of it.

Jones' team argued that there wasn't enough evidence to support J.G.'s claims. Also that more information was needed to determine whether the lawsuit was valid.

J.G.'s decision to change her name and provide additional information about the alleged incident may have addressed some of the concerns raised by Jones' team.

It's not uncommon for cases to be dismissed for various reasons, including a failure to comply with court orders or provide sufficient information.

In this case, the case was initially dismissed because the woman, identified as J.G. in the lawsuit, failed to comply with an order to provide more information about herself and the details of her allegation.

However, the appellate court found that J.G. had made a good faith effort to amend her pleadings and that the initial court had abused its discretion in dismissing the claims.

This ruling suggests that the appellate court believes that J.G. has provided enough information to move the case forward and that her claims should be heard.

The case now heads back to Dallas County district court.  The case is also likely headed to trial in the coming months.

The lawsuit filed against Jerry Jones alleging sexual assault is not the only legal challenge he is facing.  He is also dealing with another lawsuit in which a 26-year-old woman has sued him, claiming that he is her biological father.

In that case, a judge ordered Jones to take a paternity test in December.

Dave Gettleman's time with the New York Giants has been over for one offseason now. We knew it was bad, but a list of his 10 largest free agent signings shows just how bad he was. This doesn't get into the horrendous coaching hires, the botched draft picks, and overall incompetency of his time. But it does show just how god awful he was when it came to free agency. Since Gettleman's departure the Giants have gone on to hire Joe Schoen as GM who hired Brian Daboll as head coach. Both seem to be home run hires. It's difficult to grade out Joe Schoen in the free agent market. The Giants have been in a difficult spot with the salary cap. Another sign that Dave Gettleman was terrible at his job.

One might look at Gettleman's history as a GM and say "hey, that's pretty good". After all, he was the guy who assembled the 2015 Carolina panthers who got to the Super Bowl. Just one problem with that. Gettleman didn't assemble that team. It was Marty Hurney who drafted Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly. Those guys were the heart and soul of that Carolina Panthers team. Much like Barry Switzer taking the team Jimmy Johnson assembled, and not messing it up too much. But let's get back to Gettleman's time with the Giants in New York. Here are the top most expensive free agent contracts Gettleman handed out. This list shows Dave Gettleman was terrible at free agency. Or at least he makes a compelling argument. Shout out to Warren Sharp @SharpFootball on twitter for putting this list together.

Stewart only played in 3 games for the Giants in one season. He never saw the second year of the contract.

Like Stewart, Rudolph didn't see the second year of his contract. He did manage to play in 16 games for the G-Men, but only tallied 1 touchdown.

I can't figure out why Ohmameh was signed by Gettleman. He seems like a journeyman. He was cut after the first year of his three year deal. There's a theme here.

Martin got cut after the second of his three year deal. He didn't start a single game in his second season with the Giants.

This one didn't age well, but injury played a role. He tore his ACL three games into his second season. he was cut before the third year of the contract.

Another contract that aged poorly. Tate was okay in his first season. He only started 4 games in his second season adn was cut after that.

At least Adoree is still on the roster. He has played in 25 of 36 games due to health reasons. But it looks like he'll see the end of the contract.

Bradberry was actually a good signing. He played well in his 2 seasons with the Giants. Unfortunately the Giants couldn't afford to keep him last offseason due to all the dead cap money.

This was one of the worst contracts in NFL history. It wasn't even the worst one Gettleman handed out.

This was just terrible. Galladay tallied 43 receptions on a team void of talent at the position. He won't see the third year of his four year contract.
