Judge dismisses Kesha’s abuse claims, gutting her lawsuit against Sony
Kesha’s fought an uphill battle in her attempts to be released from her contract with Sony Music, which she says essentially forces her to work with her alleged abuser, Lukasz “Dr. Luke” Gottwald. Kesha has filed lawsuits against Gottwald (who’s countersuing) and Sony, the latter of which she recently claimed offered to let her out of her contract in exchange for an apology. In February, a Manhattan judge denied Kesha the injunction that would have freed her from her contract, and now TMZ reports that same judge has dismissed most of the lawsuit’s claims on appeal.
