transition of personnel [from WAGT]", as WAGT's employees were employed by Media General due to the SSA. Media General, however, accused Gray of violating the shared services and joint sales agreements between WAGT and WJBF; the agreements, which last through 2020, stipulated that any future owner of WAGT had to maintain the agreements with WJBF. Media General believed that Gray was attempting to back out of the agreements by means of the spectrum auction. On February 26, 2016, a preliminary injunction was granted against Gray in the Richmond County Superior Court, which required that Media General re-assume control of WAGT, and prohibited Gray from selling WAGT in the spectrum incentive auction. Gray attempted to block the injunction, claiming that the agreements with Media General made it impossible to comply with the conditions prohibiting WAGT from partaking in joint sales agreements following Gray's purchase of the station.

The Department of Justice also declared an interest in the case. The next day, Gray admitted that they were about to launch separate news productions for WAGT, but that they were unable to do so because of the injunction. On March 23, 2016, the Supreme Court of Georgia struck down the injunction without addressing the litigation, allowing Gray to re-assume control of the station.
