The creator of the Apple+ show “Servant” recently took the stand in a California federal court to address allegations of intellectual property theft. The screenwriter firmly denied stealing the “reborn baby” concept from an independent film. In his testimony, he emphasized that he had never viewed the plaintiff’s movie and asserted that the idea was a natural progression in a storyline he had been developing for over a decade. The legal proceedings have attracted attention due to the complex nature of creative rights and ownership in the entertainment industry.
