Is it safe/legal to do this: rename and release unpaid story

Just soliciting feedback and potential pitfalls.
Hypothetical scenario: Producer commissions writer to write story to match art paid for by producer.
Project stalls; there's been a falling-out. Producer fails to pay writer.
Can the writer legally just rename their story and release by themselves or under a different team as long as the art is different?
