Facts
In its November 22 opinion, the court ruled that P breached its 1996 telecasting agreement with D when it preempted six baseball games scheduled for Sunday nights in September 1998, and September 1999 without the prior written approval of D. D claims that it has been damaged in an amount 'believed to exceed millions of dollars' as a result of P's breach of the Agreement. D received full payment from P under the contract, and as such, it may only seek extra-contractual damages stemming from the six preemptions. P seeks to preclude D from introducing testimony or other evidence of its alleged monetary damages. P contends that 'there is no factual basis to support any claim for monetary damages arising from these perceived injuries, and that such claims are the product of speculation and guesswork.'
