Lance Armstrong will be forced to answer questions about his use of performance enhancing drugs in a courtroom as part of a lawsuit by Acceptance Insurance Holding. The insurance company is accusing the long-time cyclist of conspiracy and fraud and they are looking to recover $3 million in bonuses paid to him between 1999-2001.

Armstrong's lawyers are upset because they do not believe Armstrong has to say anything since he already admitted to cheating. According to the Associated Press, they say the insurance company is carrying out a "harassing, malicious ... fishing expedition" intended to "make a spectacle of Armstrong's doping."

Judge Tim Sulak has ordered Armstrong to show documents and written answers to a number of questions by the end of this month. The trial for the case is set for April 2014.

Among other legal issues facing Armstrong include a $50 million lawsuit by the U.S. Postal Service to recover sponsorship money paid to the cyclist. He also may face a class-action lawsuit by readers of his book who claim it is fraudulent and has false advertising.

Armstrong has had a long fall from the top. After he was known as a hero for his resilience after beating cancer, he became a national icon. Now after admitting to cheating, the general public doesn't think too highly of him.

One cyclist, Mel Slaney, went to Twitter and expressed her disappointment with Armstrong after watching a documentary about him earlier this summer.

@melslaney Watching a doc on Lance Armstrong, Bully, Liar, Tosser. Some of us have to take drugs to live, not just to ride a bike. #cheater #letdown
