LOS ANGELES — The City of Pasadena and the Rose Bowl Operating Company’s request for a preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order against UCLA, in an effort to attempt to halt its attempt to move home football games from the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena to SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, has been denied due to the plaintiffs’ showing a lack of emergency on the issue, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled Wednesday morning.
Judge James C. Chalfant declined to rule on the anticipatory breach, in which the plaintiffs claim UCLA counsel told the Rose Bowl and Pasadena of its plans of “moving on,” but did say that he considered the issue a “problem.”

“Mere negotiating is not an anticipatory breach,” the judge said when the plaintiff’s counsel argued that UCLA was already discussing a move to SoFi Stadium.
The ruling is a blow to the City of Pasadena and the Rose Bowl’s case and lawsuit, which aim to keep UCLA to its lease, set to run through June 30, 2044. However, Nima Mohebbi, an attorney representing the City of Pasadena and the Rose Bowl Operating Co., said they were confident in their standing going forward.
“We’re very pleased with the judge’s statements,” Mohebbi said. “Even though he found that there’s no immediate emergency, he made very clear in a lot of his statements that there’s irreparable harm that UCLA has an obligation to play at the Rose Bowl through 2044, and we’re very confident in our facts in this case.
