As part of the transition agreement, the association agreed to dissolve and turn over most <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Outlet-Online-Booties-Mens-Shoes-Shoulder-Bag.html>Gucci Mens Shoes</a>  of its alumni outreach functions to the university and also to vacate the alumni center by Wednesday.
+
The university plans to use the space, located on University Parks Drive, as an approach to a pedestrian bridge that would cross the Brazos River.
+
Although members of the association鈥檚 executive committee approved the proposal in June, the final vote on the proposal is not scheduled until Sept. 7, when it will be put to the association鈥檚 membership and board of 鈥╠irectors.
+
Two-thirds of the members who attend the meeting would have to vote in favor of the agreement to ratify it.
+
It was thought that the agreement could bring to an end the tensions between the university and the BAA, an independent nonprofit corporation, that have existed since the early 2000s.
+
Kurt H. Dorr, a member of the Baylor Alumni Association and a 1983 graduate, requested the temporary restraining order against Baylor University and the Baylor Alumni Association, as well as Elizabeth E. Coker, a Polk County district court judge and former president of the association鈥檚 board of directors, and Collin Cox, a Houston attorney who serves as president of the association鈥檚 board of directors.
+
U.S. District Judge Walter Smith signed the order Tuesday.
+
Gerald Haddock, a Fort Worth-based attorney and one of five attorneys who is representing Dorr, described the essence of the case as 鈥渢he democratic process and voting鈥?and protecting the Hughes-Dillard Alumni Center from destruction until the final vote could take place.
+
Meanwhile, Baylor spokeswoman Lori Fogleman chalked up the development to an internal problem at the BAA. Association staff who were working out of the Hughes-Dillard building already have relocated to the Clifton Robinson Tower, she said.
+
鈥淔or more than 10 months, Baylor officials have been engaged in active negotiation with the elected leadership of the Baylor Alumni Association, and we now find ourselves co-defendants in a judicial process,鈥?Fogleman said. 鈥淲hile Baylor will vigorously defend the case, we understand this principally as an internal governance issue concerning one member of the BAA and the elected leadership of the BAA. We expect that the court will sort this out.鈥?
+
$75,000 value
+
Dorr, who lives in the Chicago area, is not seeking monetary damages, but injunctive relief and a temporary restraining order to 鈥減reserve possession of the Hughes-Dillard building and the BAA鈥檚 other assets鈥?pending a <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Sale-Online-Belt-Buckle-Pantheon-Watch-Men-Belts.html>Gucci Men Belts</a>  vote by the association鈥檚 members, court documents state. The building itself is valued at about $75,000, according to the complaint.
+
The complaint further alleges that the university does not need to destroy the building as part of its Baylor Stadium project.
+
Haddock said Dorr is a 52-year-old financial adviser and banker, as well as a longtime 鈥渇riend and supporter of Baylor University and the Baylor Alumni Association.鈥?
+
A group of association members, incorporated as <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Discount-Loafers-Women-Hanbags-Blazer.html>Gucci Discount</a>  Independence at Baylor LLC, has been lobbying the organization鈥檚 board of directors to reject the agreement, arguing that the proposal violates a 1993 license agreement between the BAA and the university.
+
The document, the group argues, gives the BAA the perpetual right to perform alumni functions except in the case of a default on鈥╥ts part.
+
The group also contends that requiring the BAA to move out of the Hughes-Dillard Alumni Center by Wednesday as part of the transition agreement violates a 1994 contract governing the association鈥檚 continued use of the 鈥╞uilding.
+
Proponents of the proposal said the transition agreement allowed an independent voice of the alumni association to continue through the Baylor Line magazine, while consolidating the alumni outreach effort.
+
Neither Coker nor Cox could be reached Tuesday for comment.
+
A hearing on the temporary restraining order is set for July 10, when a judge will determine whether to extend the order.
