so basically what happened on friday with kesha is that a motion for a preliminary injunction was denied. the trial as such hasn’t even started yet.

kesha’s case against dr luke is a hybrid of torts and contracts claims, and it’s a case in equity rather than in law. what that means is that she doesn’t want money damages (which would be a case in law), she wants a thing to happen (in cases in equity this is essentially called specific performance). she wants to be released from her contract. if she’s asking for money damages i haven’t read anything about it.

so when suits like this are brought, when the plaintiff wants the defendant to either do or not do something, a preliminary hearing for the injunction is held basically so a judge (no jury yet) can assess whether it’s in the ~*~interests of justice~*~ for a temporary version of what the plaintiff is asking for to be put into place before the court (either judge or jury) hears all the evidence at trial.

kesha’s lawyer moved for a preliminary injunction in the form of a temporary release from her contract, so that she can produce music without dr luke while the trial is pending (because who the fuck knows how long the trial is going to take). this was denied. this doesn’t necessarily mean she’s locked into the contract forever, because the trial on whether or not she should be released hasn’t happened yet. but it does mean that, until a verdict is handed down on that issue, the contract stands as valid.

seriously dudes my big concern is that ppl will think it’s already over and will stop showing up for her and supporting her


#GOOD INFO #BUT LIKE WHY ARE PEOPLE ACTING LIKE THEM SUPPORTING KESHA HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE OUTCOME OF THE CASE #LIKE HONESTLY?

listen up fucktruck my big concern is that a rape victim doesn’t feel alone nobody thinks that public outcry has anything to do with the outcome of a civil trial so sit all the way down maybe

this girl has been all alone in her pain for ten years and i don’t want people to forget about her again because of a misunderstanding of the legal process

You could give me a 20 minute animation of Ford eating a sandwich or something while Stan watches TV next to him with absolutely no dialogue and I’d still watch the whole thing and probably buy it on blu-ray
