If the suit is successful, Landis could receive a reward of up to a third of the money recovered by the government.The U.S. Justice Department joined the suit in February.Armstrong's lawyer also argued the suit had been filed after the six-year statute of limitations.USPS began its sponsorship of Armstrong's team in 1995 and renewed it through 2004.Armstrong was stripped of his Tour de France titles last year and in January admitted to doping. Major sponsors have canceled their deals with him and he has been banned from cycling for life.
