Tyler Perry is being sued by an author claiming he stole her plotline, Reuters reports.
Terri Donald, who writes under the pseudonym TLO Red'ness, filed a lawsuit in Philadelphia claiming that Perry based his 2012 film Good Deeds on her 2007 book, "Bad Apples Can Be Good Fruit." Donald writes that she sent Perry's production company a copy of her book before filming began. She's seeking $225,000 in damages, as well as a credit on the film.
