A judge in New York has dismissed a lawsuit against Jennifer Lopez from a writer who accused the star of stealing his idea for a TV series.
Jack Bunick filed suit at the U.S. District Court in Manhattan claiming 2006 drama series South Beach - which was executive produced by the star - was too similar to the plot of a pilot episode he wrote in 1999 for a programme called South Beach Miami.
Bunick named Lopez, United Paramount Network (UPN) and CBS Television in the suit.
But Judge Richard Berman tossed the lawsuit out of court on Wednesday declaring there to be inadequate evidence to take the case to trial. The judge also noted that there was “powerful evidence” that the defendants had created the series independently.
Papers filed by Lopez’s lawyers claimed that although the star was an executive producer, she was barely involved in the development and was only brought in at a later stage to “lend celebrity to the show.”
The show was cancelled after just eight episodes following poor reviews and low viewing figures.

Jennifer Lopez is devastated after discovering a beloved aunt is battling ovarian cancer for a second time.
Myrza Rodriguez - the 65-year-old sister of Lopez’ mother Guadalupe - underwent six weeks of treatment in September, 2005 in Germany’s Leonardis Klinik in Bad Heilbrunn, the same facility where Farrah Fawcettt and Roy Horn have been treated.
The disease went into temporary remission, but Rodriguez learned her cancer had returned last year and recent chemotherapy treatments have failed to slow its progress, according to new reports.
Rodriguez became so ill she was unable to attend the recent baptism of Lopez’s twins with husband Marc Anthony.
A source close to the Lopez family tells the National Enquirer, “Myrza has been too weak to return to Germany for treatment. Her losing medical battle has left Jennifer disappointed and sad. She had hoped Myrza would be strong enough to attend the baby’s christening, and was extremely upset when she couldn’t.”

Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez are really spending up their $6 million baby picture money from People.
Apparently, Marc decided to splurge on a pair of $2.6 million earrings as his way of thanking Jennifer for their twins.
Anthony is having the expensive bling engraved with their babies’ initials — one for each ear.
A source said: “It’s no secret that J-Lo has expensive taste, so Marc was going to have to spend a serious amount to show her how he feels.”
She’s not Jenny from the block, anymore! Unless that block is paved with gold.
