Paul filed for an injunction and temporary restraining order regarding authenticity concerns over a Michael Jordan-signed piece of United Center court he'd won at auction. The move comes as the initially granted and extended temporary restraining order expired. Paul initially won the signed floor piece at auction for $562,555.42, the payment of which was due Sept. 25. Paul wanted to investigate the floor's authenticity before paying and says he was not allowed to, according to court records and Paul's counsel.
"Well, it shouldn't be needed, first and foremost," Jordan said. "You know, I never wanted to miss a game because it was an opportunity to prove. It was something that I felt like the fans are there that watch me play. I want to impress that guy way up on top who probably worked his [butt] off to get a ticket or to get money to buy the ticket."
