import arcpy

arcpy.env.workspace = r"C:\Some\Arb\Folder"

lyr = arcpy.management.MakeFeatureLayer("work.gdb\ftr_line")
outcsv = r"line_json.csv"

# Get geometry of first feature as JSON
lyr_json = arcpy.da.SearchCursor(lyr, "SHAPE@JSON").next()[0]

# Write JSON to CSV
with open(outcsv, 'wb') as csvw:
	csvw.write(lyr_json)

I'm not sure why I chose to write it to a CSV file instead of a JSON file. Guess I'm so used to working with CSVs.
