Reynolds Wins
Harold Reynolds won a ruling in his case against ESPN. Maury Brown at the Biz of Baseball provides the details.
Judge Joseph Shortall approved Reynolds' motions deciding that ESPN must turn in information and in a separate protective order document that certain key pieces of information must be treated confidential by order of the court, including "the names, addresses and any other identifying information of person(s) who complained to ESPN about plaintiff."
PDF's of the documents can be found at Maury's site.
Update: The above quote means that Harold can see the names of his accusers, but can't release them to the public. We'll see if that gag order works better than the one in the BALCO case.

The defense attorney that leaked the Balco papers, to aid his client, is doing federal time. A Reynolds leak would not help his civil case. And nobody wants to go to jail. Chance of a leak is minimal here.
