Former Hell's Angels Member Sues FX Over 'Sons of Anarchy' | TheWrap.com

Former Hell's Angels Member Sues FX Over 'Sons of Anarchy' TheWrap.com: "former New York City chapter head of the Hell's Angels claims FX stole his idea and screwed him out of millions of dollars from its hit show 'Sons of Anarchy.'
TMZ has obtained a lawsuit filed by Chuck Zito -- in which the bike gang member-turned-actor claims he developed an idea for a show about an 'outlaw motorcycle club' back in 1998 and pitched it to FX in 2004.
Zito claims he entered into an 'implied-in-fact contract' with FX that guaranteed if it used his idea for a TV show, Zito would be 'reasonably compensated and afforded appropriate screen credits.' He says FX ultimately passed."
