Dahms sues Ullrich for defamation

Jan Ullrich will face another battle in court with his former Team Coast owner Günther Dahms after making what Dahms' attorney considered defamatory comments about his client following a court case this week. After Thursday's ruling in the rider's favour, Ullrich met with reporters and made comments concerning Dahms' character and ability to pay.

Dahms' attorney cited various media reports which repeated these comments, saying "the deed was done publicly and spread by the media."
