What is the name of your state California
I am the joint owner of a movie screenplay. My partner decided to option the screenplay to a production company. He told me he was going to do this, whether I liked it or not. He agreed to pay me half of whatever he receives for the screenplay.
Can he do this?
What can I expect to receive from this option. If the movie is made, can I collect my half? Also can I expect a credit on the screenplay?
