The duo represented Warner Bros. a few years ago in litigation with CBS over profits from Two and a Half Men.

As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Los Angeles' top attorney Marty Singer sent a stinging letter to Warner Bros. and CBS threatening a lawsuit if the network and studio don't restart production on TV's most-watched sitcom.

He took aim at the show's creator and writer, Chuck Lorre, claiming that Warner Bros. and CBS canceled the show episodes "not because of my client's condition but in retaliation for your show runner being criticized." He also accuses them of "pampering" Lorre.

Citing the decision to cancel production of Two and a Half Men for the rest of the season, Singer writes:  "This action is outrageous and in direct violation of our client's legal rights, including under the contract between our client and Warner Bros. Television with regard to Two and a Half Men ("the Series"). Our client is entitled to be paid for eight additional episodes under his contract on the Series."

Sheen is ready to work and is clean and sober, the letter states. "Furthermore, my client is clean and sober and has passed every drug test requested. In fact, he took passing tests this weekend."

As RadarOnline.com has exclusively reported, Charlie has passed multiple drug tests over the past week.

According to Deadline Hollywood, Baker's original five-year contract is being extended an additional season; he's in season three right now.  The new deal gives him a bigger piece of the profits as the episodes are sold into syndication and will give him a producer credit beginning in season five.

It's essentially a $10 million a year package for the next three seasons beginning in the Fall.

While not quite Charlie Sheen money -- he makes almost $30 million a season! -- the deal is presumably giving the 41-year-old Australian actor one very merry Christmas.
