On April 18 at 2 PM EST, Kesha and Dr. Luke will square off at the New York version of the US Supreme Court - the New York Court of Appeals - for oral argument on two appeals by Kesha, setting the stage for an epic showdown and preliminary peak of Dr. Luke's 9 year-long defamation lawsuit against Kesha.

 

The outcome of these appeals will drastically affect the upcoming jury trial of Dr. Luke's defamation lawsuit, currently scheduled to begin in July 2023, and have profound impact on defamation law and First Amendment rights in New York and potentially the US as a whole.

 

The oral argument, taking place in New York State's capital Albany, will be live-streamed on Youtube.


See below for more details.

The lawyers, not them. But they could theoretically attend the oral argument (though I don't think that's going to happen).

Well organized OP :clap3:

 

The larger implications of this trial are surreal. Of all parties and conflicts to have that kind of impact I didn’t expect it to be this one.

 

Sen. Brad Hoylman’s involvement really took this whole thing to another level.

That would be horrible for Kesha, though. Society is so quick to vilify female accusers regardless of how credible their claims are (e.g. Heard having 12 legally-verified instances of abuse during the London trial).

No, the decision will arrive a month later approximately (provided there is no deadlock among the judges).

 

This is one of the questions that I answered in the FAQ that I linked in the OP.
