As the 7-year-old libel suit over a rape accusation nears trial, a New York judge is opening the books on pop music dealmaking.
To prevail at trial, Dr. Luke will not only have to convince a jury that he didn’t drug and rape the budding pop star 15 years ago in a hotel, he’ll also attempt to show damage from her accusations. Kesha is now making a bid to preclude testimony on lost business opportunities.
And as for the confidentiality of Kesha’s recording agreement, Sony told the judge that if the terms “were made publicly available, Sony’s competitors would likely use it to encourage artists and producers to sign with other record companies, instead of Sony.” In her latest order, Justice Schecter is allowing Sony to redact personal identifying information and contact information of its employees upon the music giant’s discussion of a public backlash to this case. But otherwise, she sees no good reason to keep the info under wraps.
