Sterling argues he is the sole owner and shareholder of LAC Basketball Club, a franchise and private corporation that manages and runs the Clippers.
He transferred those shares into the Sterling Family Trust in 1998, but when Sterling revoked that trust June 9, the shares of the corporation reverted back to his name, and his wife had no authority to sell them.
