In February 1999, executive producer Alan James filed a lawsuit against his former attorney, Greg Bernstein, and his former law firm, Rosenfeld, Meyer & Susman, alleging that Bernstein had fraudulently induced him into financing this movie by misrepresenting its budget and sales projections. James also alleged that the firm had favored another client, producer Daniel Levin, over him when setting up the financing deal, and that they had concealed the fact that Bernstein was also getting an executive producer credit - a clear conflict of interest. Bernstein denied having ever represented James, but in April 2000, when confronted with evidence to the contrary during his testimony in the middle of the trial, he said that he "forgot" doing so. The case was soon settled, with James receiving $3.4 million. Although another condition of the settlement was for Bernstein to relinquish his credit, he ended up still being credited in the movie itself.
