Not intentionally. He was sued over his 1970 song "My Sweet Lord", because the melody was nearly identical to "He's So Fine" recorded by the Chiffons. The lawsuit went on for years, with Harrison's former manager Allen Klein actually becoming his opponent when Klein bought the company that published "He's So Fine". Harrison was found guilty of "subconscious plagiarism", rather than purposely "stealing" the melody, but he continued to appeal.
The Chiffons recorded a cover version of "My Sweet Lord", Harrison's 1977 single "This Song" mocked the lawsuit, and Harrison ultimately ended up owning both songs, while Klein suffered in court for switching sides.

George harrison wrote a song about that lawsuit?
"My Sweet Lord" is melodically similar to "He's So Fine", recorded by the Chiffons. A judge determined that Harrison did not consciously plagiarize "He's So Fine", but likely unconsciously copied the melody. (His later song "This Song" took a tongue-in-cheek look at the case.)The lawsuit went on for years, with Harrison's manager Allen Klein actually changing sides after he bought the publishing company that owned "He's So Fine". It counted against Klein in the long run, and Harrison ultimately ended up owning both songs.
