"Minnesota Vikings Kevin and Pat Williams can play while their court case over their use of the substance StarCaps plays out, and the NFL cannot step up testing of them during that time, Hennepin County District Judge Gary Larson said this morning in a 15-page ruling.Larson also scheduled a hearing July 22 on the NFL's request to put the state court matter on hold pending the league's appeal of federal claims -- a process that could take months.
Lawyers for the two defensive linemen asked Larson to let them continue to play football. The NFL wanted the players to serve out their suspensions.
The NFL argued that a restraining order Larson issued late last year was dissolved by the actions of U.S. District Judge Paul Magnuson."
