As chief executive of Wells Fargo, Timothy J. Sloan failed to clean up a string of scandals that shook the bank and abruptly stepped down amid widespread criticism more than four years ago. He now says Wells Fargo owes him at least $34 million in back pay. Mr. Sloan sued Wells Fargo on Friday, saying that the bank owed him for unpaid stock awards, bonuses and unspecified “emotional distress.” His lawyers said that the bank he formerly led made him a scapegoat for problems that predated his tenure, and they recast his resignation under fire in 2019 as “an act of further loyalty to the bank.”The lawsuit was a surprise move, inasmuch as Wells Fargo for years has been trying to move on from Mr. Sloan’s tenure and improve its relationship with both customers and regulators. A Wells Fargo spokeswoman, Beth Richek, said the bank stood behind its decision to withhold the pay. “Compensation decisions are based on performance,” she said in a statement.
