Group takes car back;sues Irvin for more than $1 million dollars
Toyota dealers sue Dallas football star
DALLAS — Michael Irvin will return the car he has been driving to publicize Dallas-area Toyota dealers, but whether they'll get their money back will be settled in court.
The Associated Press
The North Texas Toyota Dealers Association sued Irvin on Tuesday for about $1.4 million in damages, alleging the football star misrepresented himself as a moral person when he signed an endorsement contract on Feb. 12.
State District Judge Candace Tyson yesterday set a March 10 trial date in the case filed against Irvin, who pleaded no contest to cocaine possession last month.
"Had the dealers association known of Michael Irvin's immoral lifestyle, it would not have entered into the agreement," the lawsuit states.
The suit accuses Irvin of violating deceptive-trade laws, which means that a jury could assess a verdict three times the specified amount of damages if Irwin is found liable.
The group also wanted the judge to order Irvin to immediately return a 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser that was furnished to him for one year under the terms of the contract. His lawyer agreed to return the car, valued at $50,000, by early this afternoon.
Telephone calls to Irvin's agent, Steve Endicott, were unanswered vesterday.
Police in Irving, Tex., found Irvin, a former teammate and two topless dancers in a hotel room on March 4, along with marijuana, cocaine and drug paraphernalia.

Larry Friedman, attorney for the association, said the scandal had prompted the group to scrap a spring advertising campaign at the last minute. The campaign cost the association $200,000, including $110,000 for Irvin's services, Friedman said.
Last month, inch pleaded no contest to a felony cocaine possession
charge after another topsless dancer testified outside the jury's presence that Irvin had attended all-night drug and sex parties.
The player was sentenced to four years deferred adjudication, fined $10,000 and ordered to perform 800 hours of community service.
for more than $1.4 million in damages.
He was later suspended for the first five games of this season by the NFL for the drug violation.
The lawsuit seeks to recover the lost cost of the campaign, along with $1.2 million the group alleged that it lost in sales because of the aborted campaign, plus court costs.

Courier reached the No.1 ranking in 1992, the year he won his second-straight French Open and his first of two Australian Opens.
Pete Sampras, currently ranked No. 1 and the defending U.S. Open champion, is top-seeded for
this year's tournament. His first-round opponent will be David Rifk of the Czech Republic.

Michael Chang, ranked No. moved to No. 2 in the seedings, changing places with second-ranked Thomas Muster of Austria.
Yevgeny Kafelnikov of Russia, ranked fourth, was dropped to seventh in the seedings. With Boris Becker pulling out of the tournament because of an injured wrist, Goran Ivanisevic was seeded fourth, followed by Wimbledon, Champion

Other key first-round pairings will pit Martin against 1988 U.S. Open winner Mats Wilander, and Chang against Daniel Vacek of the Czech Republic.
Top-seeded in the women's draw is Steffi Graf, who is seeking her second straight and fifth over all U.S. Open title. Graf's first-round foe will be Yayuk Basuki of Indonesia.
Monica Seles, co-ranked No. 1 with Graf and seeded No. 2, will face Anne Miller in her first match.
Eighth-seeded Lindsay Davenport, who won the gold medal at the Atlanta Olympics, is scheduled to play Karina Habsudova of Slovakia in one of the most competitive first-round battles. Habsudova is ranked 17th in the world.
