The Sonics filed a motion to exclude Seattle deputy mayor Tim Ceis' testimony in the city's trial against the team.
Attorneys for the city had planned to call Ceis as a rebuttal witness on Thursday to counter Friday's testimony that suggests the city may have been involved in a "Poisoned Well" plan to make the Sonics bleed money with the hope that the Oklahoma City-based owners would sell to a private, local investment group.
The Sonics claim in Tuesday's filing that Ceis would not answer questions about members of K&L Gates, the law firm representing the city in the case, and their involvement with potential private investors interested in keeping basketball in Seattle.
Here's an excerpt from the filing:
"The city should not be allowed to now ambush the PBA on the last day of trial by impliedly waiving this same privilege in its questioning of Ceis."
