CAA Accuses Range Media Partners of Stealing Confidential Information to Launch Rival Firm
CAA has filed a lawsuit accusing Range Media Partners of stealing confidential information and operating in violation of state law.
CAA has accused a handful of former agents of betraying the agency by stealing confidential client information to form Range Media Partners, a rival management firm.

CAA also alleges that Range exploited a new WGA code of conduct, which prohibits agencies from owning a significant stake in a production company or taking fees from producers to package them into projects.
