From CyclingNews today quoting Armstrong's french lawyer:
"I'm very upset and I don't share the opinion of the court," he told AFP,
adding that he and Armstrong were not seeking the suppression of the book,
rather a chance to provide the statement to readers asserting Armstrong's
denial of the most serious charges.
From Armstrong's London solicitors:
Accordingly, Lance Armstrong has instructed his lawyers to immediately
institute libel proceedings
1) In the High Court in London against the Sunday Times and David Walsh
seeking an injunction and substantial damages
2) In Paris, against David Walsh, Pierre Ballester, the publishers of 'LA
Confidential' and the publishers of L'Express.
Proceedings will be filed in the High Court tomorrow.
Issued by Schillings, Royalty House
So in France Armstrong doesn't want the book suppressed but in the UK he
does. Perhaps this is really an attempt by Armstrong to raise the
shophistication level of English speaking Lance Tifosi.
