Jets fan seek high court review of 'Spygate' suit
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A New Jersey lawyer wants the nation's top court to review his lawsuit stemming from the New England Patriots' 2007 "Spygate" scandal.
Carl Mayer is a New York Jets season ticket-holder. He and two other lawyers filed the class-action lawsuit.
They announced Thursday that they had filed a petition asking the high court to review the case.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The lawsuit seeks millions of dollars from the Patriots and coach Bill Belichick, claiming they deceived customers by secretly videotaping Jets coaches' in-game signals. It claims fans spent large sums to see games that were essentially rigged.
A U.S. District Court judge and a federal appeals panel both dismissed the suit.
The NFL fined the Patriots and Belichick $750,000.
