Craig Levein opens legal proceedings with Scottish FA | The Sun ...

CRAIG LEVEIN has opened legal proceedings against the Scottish FA.

The flop Tartan Army boss was ?relieved of his duties? on November 5 following a disappointing start to their World Cup qualifying campaign.

Last month it emerged that Levein was seeking legal advice.

And he has today served the SFA with a writ despite the governing body insisting it would honour their former manager?s contract, with payments over the next 20 months.

An SFA statement read: ?Regrettably, the Scottish FA has received notification from lawyers representing Craig Levein that their client has served a writ on the Association.

?This notification has been received despite the Scottish FA?s offer to honour Craig?s contract in full, an offer that was made immediately upon the board?s decision to relieve Craig of his duties on November 5, 2012.

?The Scottish FA has since received notification that Craig has chosen to resign, thereby foregoing the offer made to honour his contract in full.

?In the notification received, failure to make a proposal in lieu of compensation has been cited.

?It is the view of the Scottish FA that no such offer is required given Craig?s decision to resign, especially since an offer of mediation was rejected by his legal representatives.

?We will make no further comment at this time.?
