One of the plaintiffs in the suit, Milk Barn and Microseries’ manager Jan Korbelin, alleges he was told by Disney to fire the original executive producer of the series and assume their duties.
The allegations were made in a lawsuit that was filed on Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court, per The Wrap.
The production companies are suing Disney and ABC for $20 million worth in damages.
According to Korbelin, he has not been compensated for the year-and-a-half he served in the position.
