Should Mark Cuban step down as the owner of the Mavericks?

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban was solely responsible for the decision to keep former Mavs.com reporter Earl K. Sneed on staff after two separate domestic violence incidents, telling ESPN on Wednesday that it was a "horrible mistake in hindsight."

Sneed was fired this week in advance of Sports Illustrated publishing an investigative story about a culture of misogyny and predatory sexual behavior within the Mavericks organization. Cuban said he was not aware of "gruesome details" of a 2011 domestic dispute that resulted in Sneed being arrested at the Mavericks' office until contacted by Sports Illustrated this week.

A former employee at the American Airlines Center in Dallas has filed a petition seeking documents from the Mavericks and to depose owner Mark Cuban in consideration of a lawsuit she might bring for racial discrimination.

Michelle Newsome filed the petition in Dallas County Court on Thursday alleging that Cuban tried to “sweep under the rug” a 2011 incident at American Airlines Center that a noose was found in the IT closet across from Cuban’s suite.
