This is rumor control:
TrekMovie.com talked with John H. Carmichael, Mr. Ellison’s attorney. Mr. Carmichael told TrekMovie.com that he saw the reports about a link between the lawsuit and the new movie and he had "no idea what that is about." He made it clear that the new film is "not the focus" of the suit but that the suit is related mostly to merchandising and the 2006 publication of the "Crucible" trilogy of books by Simon and Schuster, which featured the Guardian of Forever.
TrekMovie.com also referred back to an interview with Mr. Ellison in December of 2007 where he dispelled the rumor. He says he looked into it and there was no Guardian of Forever in the Star Trek movie, and he went on to refer to people who spread rumors on the internet as "idiots" who should be "bombed out of existence."
Apparently Mr. Ellison would fit right in on these forums.
