Judge Ellison previously had dismissed the lion's share of Clemens' libel case, finding that McNamee's alleged statements were not libelous per se and that McNamee's remarks to the Mitchell Commission investigating steroid use in Major League Baseball were beyond the court's jurisdiction (See "TUOL" 7/2/09, 8/13/09).
Clemens' and McNamee's titanic struggle is now confined to federal court in Brooklyn where McNamee sued Clemens for defamation.
