Black Police Precinct And Courthouse Museum Recalls Miami's Segregated Past — MIAMI - FEBRUARY 02: A judges gavel rests on top of a desk in the courtroom of the newly opened Black Police Precinct and Courthouse Museum February 3, 2009 in Miami, Florida. The museum is located in the only known structure in the nation that was designed, devoted to and operated as a separate station house and municipal court for African-Americans. In September 1944, the first black patrolmen were sworn in as emergency policemen to enforce the law in what was then called the “Central Negro District.” The precinct building opened in May 1950 to provide a station house for the black policemen and a courtroom for black judges in which to adjudicate black defendants. The building operated from 1950 until its closing in 1963. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images)

With the Dolphins facing a lawsuit from Nate Sullivan, a 17-year scout who had been allowed to work at home for the last decade due to his wife’s health conditions, the Dolphins are saying nothing.

Citing that it’s now a legal matter, a Dolphins spokesman declined to comment on the situation.

If/when a lawsuit is filed, the Dolphins will be making plenty of comments via the various filings made at the courthouse. Litigation is always a matter of public record, with very few exceptions.

For that reason alone, it makes sense for the Dolphins to try to come up with a way to resolve this.
