Latest news on the other sports-venue land grab:

The D.C. government wants a Superior Court judge to help them move out property owners near the site of a proposed Nationals baseball stadium.

City officials say the current residents must be out by February seventh so they can begin construction to meet a March 2008 deadline for completing the ballpark.

The city has seized the titles to the properties through eminent domain but the property owners are fighting in court.
