Sterling meets Balmer over Clips deal
Print Edition
EMBATTLED Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling on Monday met with former Microsoft Corp chief executive officer Steve Ballmer to discuss a possible settlement over Sterling’s opposition to the US$2 billion sale of the basketball team, a source close to the case said.
Ballmer met Sterling for 90 minutes at the 80-year-old real estate billionaire’s request, but the talks did not resolve Sterling’s opposition to the deal brokered by his estranged wife, the source said.
Sterling and his wife, Shelly Sterling, are locked in a court battle over whether Sterling has legal standing to block the NBA-record sale to Ballmer.
Ballmer’s attorney Adam Streisand and Shelly Sterling’s attorney Pierce O’Donnell also attended the meeting.
The Sterlings’ probate trial has entered its final phase and Donald Sterling’s lawyers, who were to present their case on Monday, called off the day’s hearing in less than an hour.
