The US sports insurance company that paid Lance Armstrong more than $10 million in bonuses plans to file a lawsuit to recover its money, an attorney for SCA Promotions told CNN on Wednesday.
Jeffrey Tillotson said SCA has already asked the disgraced former cycling champ for the money back.
An attorney for Armstrong said the claim has no merit.
“We made our demand for the return of the money we paid him for winning the Tour de France races where the titles were stripped,” Tillotson told CNN’s Ashleigh Banfield.
“Mr. Armstrong and his legal team have not complied with that demand.”
Tillotson said the suit, which has not been filed yet, will ask for the return of $12 million in bonus money paid for wins from 2002 to 2005 and for millions in legal costs and interest.
