Mark Cuban, the Dallas Mavericks owner, sought to force Major League Baseball to speed up its process for approving him as the buyer of the Texas Rangers if he wins an auction for the baseball team.
Cuban needs expedited approval because he must close the sale by Aug. 16 if he is the successful bidder at the auction this week, his lawyers said today in court papers in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Fort Worth, Texas.
