LEGAL FILE

Set Piece: Los Angeles artist George Yepes is suing Latino comedian Paul Rodriguez and his I Was Framed Productions Inc. over the sets for the “Paul Rodriguez: Crossing Gang Lines” special that aired Sunday night on Fox. Yepes claims in his Municipal Court suit that Rodriguez breached a verbal agreement to pay $12,000 for the artwork and set designs, including a 20x36-foot painting in three panels, then later attempted to pay him only $2,500. Rodriguez’s co-executive producer, Jeff Wald, said there is “absolutely no ground” in Yepes’ claim.
