From what I understand, a writer owns the scripts, the studio owns the right to production and this is a standard thing (mainly because he says other B5 writers should do the same with their scripts, not just their B5 scripts). It doesn't strike me it's a deal JMS made with WB (how could it transfer to other writers' works in other shows?), but it's possible I was wrong.
No, I think you're right about the scripts and the studios thing, Fett. But I still don't know how relatable it is to TheGov's legal issue (being different mediums)...
