lilosurprise230WM.jpgRichard Lugner, known as an eccentric Austrian businessman, is considering legal action against Lindsay Lohan after the actress backed out of a scheduled appearance.

Lugner had confirmed Lilo as his guest to last year's Vienna Opera Ball and had even paid the troubled starlet $270,000 for her appearance. After claiming she missed her flight, Lindsay was a no-show at the annual event. The 78-year-old businessman says despite not showing up, Lilo still took the money, and to this day, has returned only $13,000.

When asked about the lawsuit, Lugner said, "If we sue, we are faced with the problem of how solvent she is."

Lindsay has yet to comment on the incident.
