Johnson led the defense in a matter in which the plaintiff asserted an “idea theft” claim under California law, claiming that the Ben Affleck thriller The Accountant was based on his unpublished novel written under a pen name in the early 2000s. In March 2022, the court sustained the demurrer without leave to amend and dismissed the case with prejudice.
