Creative Artists Agency is being sued by a writer who claims that the Hollywood talent agency stole his TV show idea by giving the project to a higher-profile writer client in a move that would be more lucrative for the agency.

John Musero, formerly a writer on HBO’s “The Newsroom,” alleges in a complaint filed this week in Los Angeles County Superior Court that his agents at CAA went behind his back and gave his legal drama pilot “Main Justice” to another client, Sascha Penn, who has a longer list of writing credits including the recent movie “Creed II.”The agency then sold the show to CBS, with Jerry Bruckheimer as an executive producer, according to the suit. Bruckheimer is also a CAA client.

Musero’s suit also alleges that CAA breached its duty on another TV pilot he wrote, titled “Influence.”
