Quinton Jackson remains under a general injunction after a judge ruled against a motion to dismiss, a court representative today told MMAjunkie.

A written order will be issued by New Jersey Superior Court Judge Karen L. Suter, who in April granted Bellator MMA the injunction, said Donna Mazzanti, an administrative specialist with the Burlington County Superior Court.

“Rampage” Jackson (36-11 MMA, 8-5 UFC), repped by Bruce Goldstein of McCusker, Anselmi, Rosen and Carvelli, seeks to free himself from a general injunction that forbids him from “fighting for any MMA promoter.”

Although his legal rep convinced an appellate judge to reverse a portion of the injunction and allow him to fight Fabio Maldonado (22-8 MMA, 5-5 UFC) at UFC 186 in April, the rest of the court order was kept intact.

Goldstein did not immediately respond to an MMAjunkie request for comment.

Jackson, who beat Maldonado via decision on the UFC 186 pay-per-view card in his first UFC fight in more than two years, claims Bellator breached a contract by not disclosing pay-per-view numbers from his Bellator 120 bout against Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal. Bellator, meanwhile, believes Jackson breached when he negotiated with the UFC and this past December signed a contract with the industry-leading promotion.

Bellator won the first round of the legal fight when Suter ruled the Viacom-owned promotion had a reasonable chance of proving its claims in court and granted an injunction against Jackson. After winning a partial reversal, the ex-UFC champ then sought a dismissal in court.
