Two law firms sued former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling this week for fees allegedly owed from representation during the 2014 legal fight for the franchise, according to The Los Angeles Times.
The lawsuit alleges that Sterling owes the two firms more than $270,000 from the July 2014 case, which upheld the sale of the franchise to Steve Ballmer.
According to the Times, the compliant said “no legitimate reason” has been provided “for the failure to pay.”
In the 2014 case, a judge ruled that Shelly Sterling, Donald’s wife, acted appropriately in agreeing to the sale of the franchise.
