Cleveland's fight to keep the Browns from moving from downtown and into a proposed dome in the suburbs has taken yet another legal turn. The city has filed a lawsuit to stop the NFL team from leaving Cleveland's lakefront when its stadium lease expires after the 2028 season.

In August, the Browns announced their intentions to move to Brook Park, which is about 13 miles southwest of the current stadium, because it was “their most compelling option.” The team described it as a $2.4 billion project, which was later revealed to include a domed stadium.

The City of Cleveland has filed a case against the Cleveland Browns ownership after proposed departure from Huntington Bank Field.
