He’s suing the basketball team? If this is about voting in the arena I don’t know that the Hawks own where they play. WTH???

Wood's Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order was denied, but that decision does not operate as a complete dismissal of his complaint.

In fact, the defendants yesterday filed a motion to dismiss, citing the fact that the denial of the TRO was based in part on a finding that Wood lacked standing, which also should form the basis for denying the complaint. But until the court issues a ruling on the motion to dismiss, the case is actually still "alive."

As for the subpoena served on the Hawks (seeking surveillance video of the arena which was used as a polling place), I'm pretty sure that subpoena is premature in that the court hasn't established a discovery schedule (and hopefully never will).
