Jeremy Mayfield is asking a U.S. District Court judge to reconsider his ruling that dismissed Mayfield’s claims against NASCAR over a May 2009 drug test that NASCAR said was positive for methamphetamines. In May, Judge Graham Mullen dismissed Mayfield’s claims as he ruled that Mayfield had waived most of his rights to sue NASCAR when he signed the NASCAR-driver agreement and NASCAR-owner agreement. He also indicated that Mayfield did not have enough evidence to support his claims. Mayfield’s legal team, headed by celebrity attorney Mark Geragos, filed a four-page motion Tuesday night asking Mullen to reconsider. Such motions are not uncommon, especially when an appeal is planned.(full story at SceneDaily and much past news about the lawsuit on the #41 Team News page)(6-17-2010)
