Imprisoned former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert has asked a judge not only to reject a sexual abuse victim’s breach-of-contract lawsuit, but to make the man repay $1.7 million in secret hush-money payments. In response to the lawsuit and in his counterclaim, made public Thursday and signed by Hastert, he denied the oral pact is akin to a valid and enforceable contract and, if so, it would be the plaintiff who breached it when he broke his silence and spoke to federal authorities.
