Kesha's legal team will appeal
moves closer to trial, a New York judge Thursday eviscerated Kesha’s remaining defenses. Judge Jennifer Schecter not only narrowed the focus of what could be argued at trial but ruled that Kesha defamed Dr. Luke when she falsely told Lady Gaga that the producer had raped Katy Perry.
Schecter’s ruling also lowered the threshold for Dr. Luke’s attorneys to meet in order to prove their defamation case by ruling that Dr. Luke was not a public figure. The court ruled that while Gottwald might be known in certain music circles that he “has never been a household name or achieved general pervasive fame,” nor had he “ever injected himself into the public debate about sexual assault or abuse of artist in the entertainment community.
Schecter also ruled that Kesha should be held responsible for the statements made by her public relations firm Sunshine Sachs and her then-attorney Mark Geragos, if those statements are found actionable at trial. In addition, the court ruled that Kesha’s contract with Dr. Luke was not unconscionable nor had she been fraudulently induced to sign it.
Dr. Luke’s attorney Christine Lepera said her client is looking forward to the trial where “will prove that Kesha's other false statements about him were equally false and defamatory.’
