Looks like a money grab with the timing of the show's acquisition by Disney and appearance on streaming platform Disney+. People suing say they're just filing now because they'd never heard the X-Men theme song until recently.
I can hear the clear similarity -- it's quite close -- but what are the chances that Shuki Levy was familiar with this Hungarian cop show? Sometimes musical coincidences do happen.
If it can be proven that he was familiar with it, I think it's a pretty clear case of plagiarism.

There's a new Art and Making of Book out about X-Men TAS - I've been keeping an eye out for reviews and on twitter to see if there's any mention of the music in the book. This is an mage someone just shared, not sure if there's more discussion about the show's music or not.
