NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL Players Association has served subpoenas on the NFL, commissioner Roger Goodell and former union president Troy Vincent, according to a report Thursday by Sports Business Journal.

The subpoenas, part of an ongoing civil lawsuit filed by a former union official, seek all documents related to allegations that Vincent and other former NFLPA officials attempted to collude with NFL officials by holding secret meetings to discuss labor talks.

The league’s collective bargaining agreement expires next March and a work stoppage is possible without a new deal.

The meetings are alleged to have occurred before current union chief DeMaurice Smith won an election over Vincent to become executive director in March 2009.
