Kesha, the singer known for hits such as "Tik Tok" and "Die Young," had appealed a decision in February that said she could not be released from her contract with producer Dr. Luke.
Kesha has alleged that Dr. Luke, whose real name is Lukasz Gottwald, had sexually, emotionally and physically abused her. Dr. Luke's record label is affiliated with Sony.
Manhattan state Supreme Court Justice Shirley Werner Kornreich noted that Kesha had "failed to plead that any of the alleged discrimination occurred in New York State or City," and that the court had no jurisdiction over the claims.
The court also denied Kesha's claims that Dr. Luke's abuse constituted a hate crime.

Wut?
Would a male judge reach a different conclusion?
Say a male judge looking to one day perhaps be considered for the Supreme Court?
When Popehat does his lawsplaing thing, 1,2,3,4, does he write it all out first then divided into however many needed Twitter segments, or does he predict how many segments his lawsplaining will take and go thorough them incrementally? Because that would be great brainiac type visualization and planning, while the first way would be only ordinary.
And I'll say it again, if this man was being accused of raping her, then why didn't she report it to the police and have him prosecuted? If she did, they either determined there was nothing there, but since this is coming to light now. The whole rape charge is predicated on the fact that she didn't accuse him until she wanted out of her Sony six record deal. All Sony had to do was say, Dr. Luke, you are dismissed. Case closed, but nope. She tried to use this alleged sexual assault as a leveraging tool to get out of a contract and it failed.
She may garner sympathy with the breathless vapored crowd if starfuckers she calls fans, but in reality, I suspect, that she's a buffoon that let this dude into her pants and regretted it later. Or he tried and failed and she got mad. Either way, there was no rape.
