CAA Resolves Blacklist Suit Ahead of Trial
CAA settled with writer John Musero over claims the agency used internal “underperformer” lists to derail his career, agreeing to roughly $500,000 after he sought $25 million. The case, which began in 2019 and would have tested fiduciary duties and internal listing practices, was resolved ahead of opening statements with terms to be finalized within 45 days, and CAA called the suit meritless while potential witnesses like Aaron Sorkin were anticipated.
