Attorneys for Fontainebleau Las Vegas fired a new volley in the ongoing legal battle involving Wynn Las Vegas’ accusations that the new resort is poaching its executives and encouraging workers to violate their employment contracts.
In an opposition to Wynn’s motion for a preliminary injunction to stop Fontainebleau filed late Friday in Clark County District Court, Fontainebleau said the court doesn’t have the authority to step into the dispute with a blanket injunction.
A hearing is scheduled May 9 before Clark County District Judge Mark Denton.
In its opposition, Fontainebleau made it clear that the two Strip resorts are far from settling the dispute that formally began with a Wynn lawsuit filed Feb. 29, but discussed by representatives of the two resorts for months earlier.
