Cooper ruled that Landis and the government can question Hansen for no more than two hours and must limit the deposition to what she knows about drug use by Armstrong or anyone else associated with the former U.S. Postal Service team. In 2012, he agreed to repay donors nearly a half-million dollars that he raised for his defense fund in an agreement with federal prosecutors to spare him criminal charges. On Thursday, the judge also ruled that Armstrong will be allowed to question some Postal Service officials about the sponsorship contract, its anti-doping provision and its overall estimated worth to the agency.
