Kris Humphries is ready to "vigorously" clear his name.
The baller's attorney exclusively tells E! News that the star is girding up to duke it out with a woman who alleges that the athlete gave her herpes.
"It is unfortunate that Ms. Kayla Goldberg and her attorneys chose to name my client, Kris Humphries, in a lawsuit alleging such malicious, defamatory and demonstrably false claims," his attorney, Lee A Hutton III, tells E! News.
"Shortly prior to filing the complaint, Ms. Goldberg demanded $24 million" — while that number hasn't appeared in any of the legal filings, it has been cited in other published reports — "from Kris in exchange to avoid publicity on the matter. Athletes and celebrities have a legal right to exist without harassment."
Hutton also added that "we will vigorously pursue all available remedies to defend and protect Mr. Humphries against these allegations."
Goldberg sued the 27-year-old last week for sexual battery and negligent transmission of a venereal disease suit, claiming that he infected her with herpes after they allegedly met at a restaurant, hooked up and had unprotected sex.
She is seeking unspecified general, specific and punitive damages and court costs.
