Producers of Fox’s Hit Show ‘Empire’ Sued for $1.5 Billion

Novelist Timothy J. Levi sues Fox, 'Empire' creator Lee Daniels, and other show producers for $1.5 billion in damages; the defendants allegedly infringed on Levi's rights to the show's concept, after Levi shared his 2007 manuscript with an attorney, whom supposedly copied and shared it with "Empire' producers before the show premiered in 2015.
