MadeaTyler Perry has been slapped with yet another lawsuit.

This time around, a woman by the name of Lisa Daniels has filed papers in Georgia superior courthouse accusing the director of theft of a literary piece and/or play. The plaintiff says the documents were handwritten because she couldn’t afford the costs of filing a civil case in the court of Fulton County.

“I was the sole creator of a literary piece ‘Madea Gets a Job,’ and this literary piece was featured in the form of a Tyler Perry play,” she stated. “This play had the same title that my play had, and this play had similar themes as my play.”

Daniels is seeking no less than 40 percent of the earnings from the play.

Perry previously faced lawsuits for his work on Good Deeds and Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor.
