ALAMEDA, Calif. Michael Crabtree Jersey. - Oakland Raiders coach Tom Cable asked a court Thursday to throw out a civil suit filed by a former assistant he allegedly attacked. In a motion filed in Alameda County Superior Court, Cable argued that Randy Hansons case against Cable and the Raiders should be decided in arbitration under NFL rules. Hanson accused Cable of attacking him at a training camp meeting in August, leaving him with a fractured jaw and broken teeth. According to a copy of Hansons contract with the Raiders included in the motion, Hanson agreed to abide by the NFLs constitution and bylaws. According to league bylaws, the commissioner has final jurisdiction to arbitrate disputes between coaches. The Raiders had previously asked the court to send the case to arbitration. The league also sent a letter to Hansons lawyer, the Raiders and Cables lawyer saying that commissioner Roger Goodell believes this case falls under his jurisdiction. "If these guys fight in a bar outside the work environment, then the NFL wouldnt have jurisdiction," said Cables lawyer, Ivan Golde. "This was at training camp, in a coaches meeting, with other coaches there and football related. It fits under arbitration. Its unfortunate hes doing this." Hansons lawyer did not immediately return a call seeking comment. Hanson filed the suit in February, alleging that Cable "without warning or provocation" grabbed him during an Aug. 5 coaches meeting at the teams Napa hotel. Cable then threw Hanson against the wall, causing the left side of Hansons face to strike a table, then hit Hanson while he was on the floor, the lawsuit said. The Napa County district attorney declined to prosecute Cable, citing inconsistencies in Hansons story that werent corroborated by the three assistant coaches in the room. Hansons suit said the Raiders made only a cursory investigation of the attack and ratified Cables conduct by failing to discipline him and by not allowing Hanson to remain as an assistant coach.
