On 29 March 2018, Benzies' litigation against Rockstar and Take-Two suffered a significant setback when the companies succeeded in dismissing 12 out of 18 of his claims, though the court did rule that Benzies "remains entitled to receive certain royalties" as part of his compensation.

Benzies took sabbatical leave from Rockstar on 1 September 2014. In January 2016 it was announced that he had left the company. On 12 April 2016, Leslie Benzies started legal action against Rockstar Games and its parent Take-Two Interactive claiming $150 million in unpaid royalties.
In 2005 he and Sam Houser, President of Rockstar Games, received a BAFTA Special Award.
