Dallas Judge Stops Auction of Masters Jacket 3/6/13

DALLAS - A judge in Dallas is ordering an auction company to hold onto
a champion's green jacket from the Masters golf tournament until ownership can
be determined at trial.
Judge Emily Tobolowsky granted Augusta National Golf Club a temporary
injunction Monday to stop Dallas-based Heritage Auctions from selling the jacket
won by Art Wall Jr. in 1959. Last month the club, which claims the jacket was
stolen from there, was granted a temporary restraining order days before it was
to be auctioned.
The Dallas Morning News (http://bit.ly/Z3s3hV ) reports Stephen Pyles of
Florida, who paid about $61,000 for the jacket at auction last year, now wants
Heritage to sell it.
Pyles says there's no proof the jacket was stolen and disputes the club's
claims that Masters jackets are supposed to remain there.
