At last, the rooftop lawsuit against the Cubs has reached the end of the road

When the Cubs first began construction of the outfield video boards at Wrigley Field, the owner of a couple of the rooftop clubs on Sheffield whose views would be blocked by the board attempted to get this construction stopped.

In Feburary 2015, they filed for a restraining order to get construction stopped. It was not granted. A further filing claimed the businesses would be hurt financially.

A few weeks later, a permanent injunction was requested. That, too, was denied by federal judge Virginia Kendall.

The boards went up, but the legal action continued.
