Main Street Sports Group (the former owner of FanDuel-branded regional sports networks) files two lawsuits against Comcast and Charter, alleging they underpaid licensing fees owed for FanDuel Sports Networks. The company claims the shortfalls occur toward the end of its operating period, and it seeks damages tied to the unpaid amounts.
The lawsuits are filed in Delaware Superior Court and are made public after Main Street begins winding down its portfolio of regional sports networks following the conclusion of the NHL and NBA seasons earlier this year. CNBC and Yahoo Sports both describe the matter as a dispute over licensing fees rather than a technical service or carriage issue, with Main Street framing it as a failure by major partners to pay the full contracted licensing obligations.
