Kesha can’t use 'critical' evidence about alleged sex assault in Dr. Luke trial, court rules.

In the ruling Thursday, the appellate panel said Kesha’s “belated disclosure” was simply too late considering “four years of extensive discovery” had ended with a hard deadline two years prior. They agreed with the lower court that the lawyer’s notes were under her custody and control and that if she had produced them years earlier, Dr. Luke’s lawyers “could have altered their litigation strategy.

At a hearing on the matter in October, Kesha’s lawyer Leah Godesky said she only learned about the notes when she called Clarick to make sure he would be available to testify at trial. “It would be, I mean, just a complete travesty of justice for the jury to be led to believe Kesha never told anyone about a sober pill until 2013 when we have concrete evidence of her telling her lawyer about it in 2006,” Godesky argued in October, according to a transcript obtained by“We cannot have a trial where Ms.

How many blows like this can Kesha take? It’s so wrong. It’s a miracle that she is still alive.

I thought that our court system was set up to get at the truth and ensure that justice prevails. It shouldn’t be about following arbitrarily set court deadlines and one party’s “litigation strategy”.
