A federal appeals court panel reinstated New York Knicks legend Charles Oakley's lawsuit against Madison Square Garden for a 2017 game ejection. The court is also allowing Oakley to add Knicks executive chairman and CEO James Dolan as a defendant. This is the second time a federal court has reinstated Oakley's case, which he filed in September 2017. Oakley's case was last dismissed in November 2021. Oakley, who was a first-team all-defensive selection with the Knicks in 1994, was ejected from a February 2021 game at Madison Square Garden.
