Bill Cosby has hit back at a woman who claims he got her drunk and sexually assaulted her when she was 15 at the Playboy Mansion.
The under-fire comic, now 77, is accused of attacking 19 women, and has so far remained silent amid the myriad of claims.
In the court papers, Cosby says Miss Huth's lawyer approached his attorney Marty Singer last month and made 'ominous references to criminal penalties.'
The lawyer, Cosby claims, demanded cash in return for silence - upping the demands as more women came forward.
Cosby alleges that Miss Huth tried to sell the story to the media 10 years ago, but no-one would publish her claims.

The court papers state: 'Approximately 10 years ago, plaintiff Judith Huff unsuccessfully tried to get money from a tabloid by selling the same story about Bill Cosby that is the subject of this lawsuit.
'Knowing that since she disclosed her allegations to a media outlet 10 years ago, she cannot claim to have a repressed memory.'
