The plaintiff sued many of these production defendants for copyright infringement upon stated similarities in the film&#8217;s theme, setting, sequence of events, characters and dialogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for UTA, Benel came forward with a theory that the agency had breached an implied contract for failing to pay him for providing the idea. According to the lawsuit,&nbsp;Benel&#8217;s manager submitted&nbsp;<em>Settler&#8217;s Day<\/em>&nbsp;to&nbsp;UTA agents&nbsp;<strong>David Kramer<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Emerson Davis<\/strong>&nbsp;in July 2011. The agents passed, indicating in an email that they had a tough time &#8220;buying into the premise.&#8221; DeMonaco is represented by another UTA agent,&nbsp;<strong>Charlie Ferraro<\/strong>, and so, Benel alleged that someone at UTA must have shared the&nbsp;<em>Settler&#8217;s Day<\/em>&nbsp;script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even assuming this to be true, U.S. District Judge&nbsp;<strong>Michael Fitzgerald<\/strong>&nbsp;can&#8217;t find any contract \u2014 implied or otherwise \u2014 between&nbsp;Benel and the talent agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Harking&nbsp;to a classic ruling involving a screenwriter who sent his work to director&nbsp;<strong>Billy Wilder<\/strong>, the judge likens Benel to an &#8220;idea man who blurts out his idea without having first made his bargain.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Benel argued that he had submitted his script for consideration, but the judge states that &#8220;it says nothing of UTA&#8217;s understanding and fails to allege that Benel and UTA came to any agreement. \u2026 There needs to be more than a unilateral offer, and Benel only offers arguments as to his intent, not UTA&#8217;s understanding or conduct.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For that reason, the judge grants UTA&#8217;s motion to dismiss, though he does so with an opportunity to Benel to refile an amended claim that might cure the deficiencies.\u00a0 For now, UTA \u2014 represented by\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.creativespikedigital.com\/lftc\/attorneys\/bryan-j-freedman\/\">Bryan Freedman<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dev.creativespikedigital.com\/lftc\/attorneys\/jesse-kaplan\/\"><strong>Jesse Kaplan<\/strong>\u00a0at Freedman + Taitelman<\/a> \u2014 scores a victory in the larger context of screenwriters bringing many copyright claims against studios with talent agencies increasingly standing as gatekeepers in the ideas submission process. Intellectual property theft is hardly sanctioned, but proving liability for allegedly stolen ideas proves to be a real-life chore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Email: Eriq.Gardner@THR.com<br>Twitter: @<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eriqgardner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eriqgardner<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A judge can&#8217;t find any contract between the talent agency and a guy who submitted a script for consideration.
